America is now facing one of the most challenging crises in over 100 years. With the rise of the COVID-19 global pandemic, even the USA isn’t immune to the devastating effects of a virus that humanity has never encountered before. While this has had a profound impact on many businesses, with government guidance to shutdown “nonessential services,” what has become more essential than ever is logistics and maintaining crucial supply chains. Sustainable temperature protection equipment, like SureTemp Thermal Pallet covers, is one of those critical tools that may make a life-saving difference at this historical moment in our country.
The Sustainable Temperature Difference
Sustainable temperature protection measures, like SureTemp Thermal Pallet covers, perform multiple objectives at the same time. From a business perspective, they are cost-effective, providing an excellent secondary layer of temperature stability for freight at good value for the expenditure. Performance-wise, they are also more reliable. Powered temperature maintenance solutions can be useful; however, they require either batteries or access to a power supply to work. This is not always an available solution when freight is weighting on a runway or a harbor. Still, whether there’s access to power or not, a thermal pallet cover will always do its job.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, sustainable temperature protection maintains the desired temperature level of vulnerable freight, including perishables. This can include comparatively “low priority” cargo such as fruit or beverages. Still, it applies just as much to high priority cargo, such as medication. Hydroxychloroquine, for example, is recommended to be stored at a room temperature of 86℉. Too high an ambient temperature and this vital medication could reduce its efficacy, and may impact medical treatment and successful recovery.
Take No Chances With SureTemp Thermal Pallet Covers
With current crises facing the entire world, the logistics industry has found itself facing both more uncertainty and more importance. The supply chain for the USA has become crucial to maintaining social order, but at the same time, it is more vulnerable as different aspects of logistics may operate at impaired or unpredictable levels. Cargo may not always make it to the next “link” in the chain on time as different freight gets prioritized either by businesses themselves, or government mandate.
However, every piece of freight is still important, and in the case of perishables, such as medication, lives may be riding on the cargo arriving at its destination in viable condition. Don’t take a chance with perishables of high value. Protect them with sustainable temperature protection like SureTemp Thermal Pallet Covers.
