Storing and transporting thermally-sensitive pharmaceutical and biomedical materials can pose a significant challenge. For example, medications such as epinephrine and insulin must be kept at temperature to preserve their efficacy. These delicate substances require robust packaging with thermal insulation to prevent the ingress of heat. Biomedical materials including live cells and tissues are typically stored at ultra-low temperatures, requiring even more powerful insulation and cooling technologies.
Because of their technical requirements, portable devices for pharmaceutical and biomedical materials can be expensive and cumbersome to move around. The higher level of thermal protection required, the more insulation materials will need to be used, resulting in oversized, bulky packaging. Medical applications need better solutions for cold storage and transport.
Insulon vacuum insulation offers transformative solutions for storing and transporting temperature-sensitive materials. With the ability to deliver ultra-high performance thermal insulation in an ultra-thin design, Insulon helps pharmaceutical and biomedical devices reduce packaging while protecting these delicate and valuable materials.
