Cold chain companies form partnership

Cold Chain Technologies, which offers systems for distributing and transporting temperature-sensitive products, has announced a new global alliance with Topa Verpakking BV of the Netherlands. Topa Verpakking provides cold chain systems throughout Europe.

This alliance will result in the immediate introduction by Topa Verpakking of Cold Chain's KoolTemp containers and Koolit refrigerants in the European market. It completes another step toward meeting the global temperature packaging needs of the pharmaceutical, biotech, healthcare, and medical device sectors.

Topa Verpakking and Massachusetts-based Cold Chain Technologies provide two cold chain laboratories: Topa Instituut and Cold Chain Laboratories. Working together, these labs will provide equivalent design and qualification testing on both sides of the Atlantic.
