Ocean Freight Resilience

Ocean freight offers significant cost and sustainability advantages for pharmaceutical supply chains, but valuable biologics remain vulnerable to temperature excursions caused by reefer defrost cycles, temporary unplug events, delays, and operational disruptions. That’s why leading shippers are adopting a dual protection strategy.

By combining the active temperature control of reefers with the passive thermal protection of Eco Freighter Lite and Exam’s Monobloc pallet shippers, products gain an additional layer of defense throughout the journey. This extra thermal buffer helps maintain product integrity when unexpected events occur, increasing cold chain resilience and reducing the risk of costly product loss.

Beyond enhanced protection, dual protection can also improve logistics efficiency. The added thermal stability supports LCL consolidation strategies, helping optimize transport costs while maintaining confidence in product quality.

Designed for straightforward deployment and handling, Eco Freighter, Eco Freighter Lite and subzero pallet shippers integrate easily into existing operations, minimizing complexity while maximizing protection.

Key benefits:

• Enhanced resilience against temperature excursions
• Protection during reefer defrost and unplug events
• Greater security for high-value biologics
• Cost optimization through LCL consolidations
• Easy operational handling and implementation/no preconditioning
• More reliable and sustainable ocean freight shipments

Because a reefer controls temperature. Eco Freighter Lite, IceXtra and IceUltra help protect against risk.
