CSafe recently launched an advanced reusable pallet shipper for pharmaceuticals.
The new CSafeAPS shipper designed to provide reliable and customizable thermal protection at ambient, refrigerated, and frozen temperatures, the company said. Tested against the most challenging International Safe Transit Association (ISTA) 7D profiles, the CSafeAPS provides continuous protection for more than 120 hours.
“CSafe is committed to providing shipping solutions that meet the full range of pharmaceutical cold chain shipping needs,” CSafe CEO Patrick Schafer said. “From large-volume diabetes drugs to small-parcel vaccine shipments, and ground-breaking individual cell and gene therapies, CSafe can provide the optimal solution to ensure medicines reach the patients who need them.”
In addition to delivering a high level of thermal protection in a passive pallet shipper, the CSafeAPS features real-time data tracking of GPS location, cargo and ambient temperature, ambient humidity and pressure, shock, tilt, and door open/close events. CSafe’s cloud-based shipment visibility platform enables live monitoring throughout the shipping journey, including the thermal capacity indicator, which displays the predicted remaining temperature protection by lane, providing risk mitigation and peace of mind the product will reach its destination uncompromised.
CSafeAPS also was designed for ease of use, CSafe added. All units are delivered preconditioned, for simple load-and-go functionality. The unit is forklift compatible from all sides and optimized to fit four pallets of product on a standard wide-body cookie sheet with a double pallet.
“Our CSafeAPS is another example of how we saw a need in the market and applied our industry-leading engineering and quality assurance expertise to deliver a solution with more advanced technology, ease of use, and reliability than any other passive solution available today,” Schafer said.
