Pharmaceutical industry manufacturers and supply chain logistics face challenges
to curate a secure protocol for high value temperature sensitive products like antibiotics,
drugs, hormonal supplements, immunological proteins, injections, lipophilic suspensions
and many more because there is a good chance of deterioration of the product due
to improper temperature conditions during their transport.

The reason behind drugs getting damaged, could be delays in processing and transportation,
packaging failure, or incorrect handling, cold air or hot breezes, cold and hot 
times of day, and intensity of sunlight. Under the cold-chain umbrella for pharmaceutical
and biotechnology products, the “refrigerated” category (2-8°C) is by far the largest
category by value compared to deep frozen (-40 to -80°C) and cryogenic (requires
liquid nitrogen; -160 to -180°C) category products. Last mile of the cold chain 
is the weakest link due to various factors including infrastructure and people skills.

To correct this weakest link for temperature regulated last mile transportation 
and distribution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology products, ZedBlox Actipod is
a one stop solution that ensures 100% safety and provides total transparency.
