General Questions
What is cold chain and why is it necessary ?
Cold Chain refers to an uninterrupted flow of a temperature-controlled shipment from manufacturing through delivery to end-user. This requires knowledge and control of the shipping environment, package design, duration of the shipment(s) and critical control points throughout the process.
Cold chain is necessary to control product efficacy, product safety, and adhere to relevant regulatory requirements. Temperature-sensitive products that require cold chain solutions may include: pharmaceuticals, biological, diagnostic materials, lab samples, chemicals, and foods.

How do I determine transit duration/temperature cycles ?
Transit duration is the amount of time that a shipment remains in transit. External temperature profiles refer to the ambient temperature that the shipping container witnesses during its transit process. There are a number of acceptable means by which the ambient profile can be determined (summer highs, winter lows). Our engineers in Indicold and Technical Services have many of years of experience providing customers with both means of determining or mapping these external temperatures through existing temperature data, en route data collection, and programs specially aimed at mapping a specific set of routes.
What is pre-qualification and qualification testing ? How do they differ ?
Pre-qualification (PQ), or Design Evaluation (DE), is the initial development of a thermal package design based on the needs assessment of the user. A successful pre-qualification test generally provides assurance that a package design will pass a final qualification test.
The Final Qualification test, sometimes referred to as a Validation, provides reasonable assurance that the qualified product or process will produce similar results under stated conditions. Upon completion of an acceptable design, the Final Qualification is performed demonstrating reproducibility (often at n=3). Engineering and Technical Services issues the Final Qualification Report, which includes all data, certifications, and proof of validated equipment necessary for the rigorous review of a full audit.
