Shipping boxes battle Covid-19
PACKAGING SOLUTIONS and systems player Sealed Air is playing a key role in providing the essential packaging solutions needed to help customers in the fight against Covid-19.
Sealed Air provides customers with packaging solutions including custom-fabricated shipping boxes, and automated packaging and bagging systems that enable the distribution of medical equipment, face coverings, and test kits. Sealed Air is also supporting vaccine distribution and administration by offering a range of temperature assurance materials that can be used in packaging vials that require a cold supply chain, including during the critical last mile of delivery.
Sealed Air’s TemPreserve KF is a customisable thermal polyurethane packaging that, along with a coolant, helps maintain required temperatures (ultra-cold, cold or hot) for the specific length of time needed during transit.
“We are proud to offer customers a full suite of packaging solutions as they prioritise getting the right equipment, test kits, and vaccines to the world’s population as quickly and safely as possible,” says Sealed Air chief growth and strategy officer Sergio Pupkin.
Sealed Air has produced packaging solutions for the health care industry for more than 30 years and is well equipped to support health care packaging solutions throughout the entire cold chain and logistics cycle, including the last mile of delivery.
The company operates two temperature assurance labs that focus on the design and testing of products that protect temperature-sensitive and perishable items for the life sciences and food industries. Located in Singapore and at Sealed Air’s global corporate headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, these International Safe Transit Association (ISTA) Standard 20 certified labs can support customers globally.
Across the company’s global footprint are more than a dozen labs and thermal transport laboratories certified by ISTA as well as 42 testing locations worldwide that design, test, and certify packaging.
