Peli BioThermal recently introduced a temperature-controlled shipping solution designed to be flexible and reusable.
New Crēdo Go shippers can adapt to unique customer programs, as well as help pharmaceutical companies reach environmental, social and governance goals, cost reduction targets, and operational performance indicators, the company said.
“The number of commercially approved pharmaceutical products that require strict temperature control is growing rapidly. And we understand that discovery, clinical trials, and commercialization require different solutions,” said Phil Gyori, CEO of Pelican Products, parent company of Peli BioThermal. “Crēdo Go brings together Peli BioThermal’s long-trusted technology and modern design innovation to improve payload protection, increase component longevity, and minimize a program’s carbon footprint.”
Peli BioThermal’s newest shipping solution combines customer collaboration and data-driven optimization to create a portfolio of shipper options that meet unique business and program requirements, the company said. Each shipper is supplied with two-, four- or six-TIC configurations to dial thermal duration up or down, and switch between open and tight temperature control to meet typical and complex shipping lane profiles.
New box build automation technology offers increased throughput and capacity potential with greatly reduced lead times for new shipper configurations while a simple, repeatable, and accurate pack-out process reduces packing time, increases daily throughput and minimizes assembly error. Additionally, TIC BridgeGuard technology distributes the phase change material coolant to where it is most needed to reduce the impact of thermal bridging without sacrificing payload space or increasing chargeable shipper weight.
Crēdo Go users begin their product journey by working with a dedicated product specialist to identify opportunities for improvement and cost reduction by collecting customer-specific data points to input into Peli BioThermal’s Trufit optimization software. This analysis tool utilizes customer data to build an optimal solution portfolio that meets the needs, goals, and performance metrics of any program. Once a program is up and running, Crēdo ProEnvision software provides order, shipment, and maintenance support to measure and continually improve program performance.
Crēdo Go reusable shippers accommodate payload sizes from 2.5 liters to 83 liters and temperature ranges from frozen to controlled room temperature. Shipping durations span 24 to 120-plus hours. All sizes are available through Peli BioThermal’s Crēdo on Reserve rental program, which provides an easy-to-follow process for return to the organization’s high-volume service centers, where the majority of the shipper is reused and the rest is recycled.
