Dry Ice for Medical Shipments &
Pharmaceutical Applications

Shipping temperature-sensitive goods kept at the appropriate temperatures

During shipping, it is critical that pharmaceuticals, vaccines, biological samples, and other medical goods be continuously stored in a limited temperature range – from when they are manufactured until the moment of application. Dry ice systems for medical shipments provide extended and consistent cooling throughout the cold chain cycle. It has significant cooling capabilities (−109.3 °F, −78.5 °C) and slowly sublimates back to gas, leaving no water or residue behind.

Dry ice provides extended and consistent cooling throughout the cold chain cycle

Dry ice has three times the refrigeration power of water ice and sublimates back to gas, leaving no water or residue behind. This assures that product temperature will be maintained throughout the cold chain without being harmed by the cooling media.

Specific Uses of Dry Ice

Dry ice is used as a cooling media in the shipment of many types of medical goods

Dry ice production for cold chain management is used for cooling while transporting food, pharmaceuticals, and biological samples. The unique characteristics of dry ice make it a more efficient and cost-productive cooling media and allow for maximized efficiency in last-mile delivery.
