Your Failing Temperature Control Package and the Myth of Standards

Increased scrutiny is being placed on distribution environment control and its documentation by global regulatory authorities. While there is obviously a link between your shipping conditions and your thermal protection (packages), the challenge is that there are no clear, reliable industry standard temperature profiles for the design of insulated packaging systems used for the distribution of products. This is because temperature profiles for packaging design should be rationalised based on not only your product characteristics, but your distribution logistics. This paper examines the lack of consistency in the current methodology for designing temperature profiles, why commonly used standards should not be used on their own, and identifies the needed parameters for consideration.
