ICECON insulated containers play an important role in vaccine transportation
2020-12-04 19:11Hui-Rui BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine has begun to be administered in certain regions. This vaccine utilizes gene technology and requires storage and transportation at temperatures as low as -70 degrees Celsius, making the cold chain one of the most challenging aspects of the vaccination process.
Dry ice is considered a suitable refrigerant for transporting vaccines at ultra-low temperatures, with a melting point of -78 degrees Celsius, creating an environment below -78 degrees Celsius for vaccine preservation. However, the use of dry ice requires insulated containers capable of withstanding ultra-low temperatures, and ICECON ultra-low temperature insulated boxes provide the necessary security for vaccine transportation.
According to foreign media outlet CNET, the first batch of Hui-Rui vaccines arrived in Singapore last week. A close partner of Hui-Rui, Cold Solutions Pte Ltd, used ICECON ultra-low temperature insulated boxes for the transportation of the COVID-19 vaccine with -70 degrees Celsius dry ice, ensuring the safety of the vaccine.
ICECON ultra-low temperature insulated boxes are capable of achieving ultra-low temperature vaccine storage and transportation. We offer a range of insulated boxes in different sizes to meet various capacity requirements.
The ICECON boxes are seamlessly molded using food-grade PE material and non-polluting polyurethane foam with a low thermal conductivity. The boxes are capable of withstanding temperatures as low as -80 degrees Celsius without becoming brittle, and have a low evaporation rate for dry ice. The boxes do not require a power source, providing a reliable carrier for vaccine transportation. The absence of power supply eliminates the risk of temperature loss due to power failure, significantly enhancing the safety of the vaccines and facilitating their transfer and storage.
ICECON has already provided vaccine storage containers for numerous pharmaceutical companies and supports customized boxes. We welcome inquiries regarding our products.
