The pharmaceutical industry is as big as it has ever been. So many people around the world rely on the medications provided from this industry. Without these medical prescriptions, these people can get very sick and may not be able to survive for much longer. Therefore, the safe deliveries of these medications is absolutely critical to pharmaceutical businesses all around the world.

One of the biggest factors that is known to jeopardize pharmaceutical products is temperature. Severe temperature spikes can have a drastic impact on the overall quality of the given product. Whether it’s the intense summer heat, or the frigid winter winds, most pharmaceutical products will be negatively affected by these temperature shifts. In order to combat this major problem, many pharmaceutical shippers and logistic managers have turned to passive temperature control as the solution.
