Envirotainer monitors temperature-sensitive air shipments
Sweden's Envirotainer, a provider of active temperature-controlled air cargo containers, has created a product that records shipment data for customers transporting temperature-sensitive health care and life science products.
The Stockholm-based company's Rapid Access to Product Integrity Data (RAPID) monitors ambient temperature as well as air temperature inside the container, battery level and opening and closing of container doors, said Martin Peter, Envirotainer's director of business development and marketing.
The shipper activates the system at origin and then deactivates it at destination using customer-specific codes. Shipment data is logged during transportation and, upon arrival, downloaded via an IR reader to a user-friendly format for further analysis.
RAPID will be available to users of Envirotainer's RKN e1 compressor cooling and electrical heating air cargo container in the summer and will be compatible with data logger software from Elpro and Sensitech.
