| Temperature
sensitive goods in Air freight |
|
If
you send a package with
temperature sensitive
goods like conditioned
food products, chemicals
or pharmaceuticals by
air freight cargo from,
let’s say Brussels to
for example Singapore,
you could be surprised
of the different
external temperatures
that are surrounding
your goods during its
transport and storages
at the different
airports. In the cargo
of an airplane for
example, the temperature
can fluctuate if the
cargo is not
conditioned. At the
airport, when the
package is placed on the
airfield for loading and
unloading or
overloading, the goods
are standing in the open
air in which
temperatures of +50°C
or even +60°C can
appear in warm countries
or even a -35°C in cold
countries. If you then
know that a loading,
unloading or overload
can take several ours,
the temperature of your
package will experience
a lot of extreme ups and
downs. The question
hereby is how the
quality of your goods
will be influenced by
these extreme weather
and temperature
conditions and if
insulation solutions as passive
cooling or an active
cooling is required to
maintain the temperature
of your goods within its
limits, maintaining your
product quality. In the
graphic below you can
see an example of the
possible external
temperatures surrounding
your goods during an air
freight transport.

| Temperature
protection in air freight |
|
If
temperature sensitive
goods are shipped with
air freight, the goods
can be protected from
extreme external
temperatures by using
various temperature
controlling techniques
as passive cooling
systems, in which
insulation solutions are used as
protection, or active
cooling systems in which
a temperature controlled
environment is created
with mechanical or
electrical cooling
units. The choice of the
most ideal system,
active or passive
cooling, is determined
by the cost, handling,
possible CCP’s in the
cold chain, etc… On
this website you can
find information and
insulation solutions on passive
cooling systems and
techniques for shipping
temperature sensitive
products with air
freight cargo.

Example
temperatures in Air cargo:
departure Brussels to
Singapore + stopover
in Dubai
|
|
The
graphic below shows a virtual temperature flow of an
air cargo shipment from sender (Brussels) to customer
(Singapore). The purpose of this graphic is to
visualize the possible external temperatures (positive
or negative) which can appear if you send goods with
air freight and how the different actors in the cold
chain as forwarders, airliners, cargo handling agents,
etc.. need to be equipped with temperature controlling
systems to maintain or keep the required temperatures
of your product. As shown in the graphic, the external
temperatures can decrease or increase extremely
specially during the tarmac
times in which the goods are standing
outside in the open air. As mentioned before, the
question hereby is if the quality of your goods is not
being influenced during these extreme external
temperature fluctuations and a conditioning or cooling
system of your goods is required. |

Departure
sender
– Airport Brussels
A = Transport
from sender to Airport (= conditioned trailers / trucks)
B
= Storrage at the forwarder (= conditioned cool
chamber)
C
= Preparing the airplane pallet (= usualy not
conditioned)
D
= Tarmac time
= Driving the airplane pallet to the air plane + loading (=
outside temperatures in Brussels)
E = Flight
Brussel - Dubai (= in this example not conditioned)
|
|
Stopover
in Dubai
F = Landing +
taxi to unloading place
G
= Tarmac time
= Onloading the goods (= outside temperature in Dubai)
H
= Storrage in Dubai airport (= in this example
in a conditioned cool chamber)
I
= Tarmac
time = Driving the airplane pallet to the air
plane + loading (= outside temperatures in Dubai)
J = Flight Dubai
– Singapore (= in this example not conditioned)
|
|
Landing
in Singapore
K =
Landing + taxi to unloading place
L = Tarmac
time
= Onloading the goods (= outside temperature in Singapore)
M =
Storrage in Singapore Airport (= in this example in a
conditioned cool chamber)
N =
Transport from airport to customer
(= conditioned trailers / trucks)

TEMAX
insulated thermal blanket as passive cooling in air freight
cargo
|
|
|
| What
is Temax insulation? |
|
The Temax
insulation is a special developed
insulation material which functions as a passive
cooling technique for transporting and distributing
temperature sensitive or temperature controlled goods
as perishables pharmaceuticals chemicals etc... The
Temax insulation functions as a thermal blanket for
temperature protection or temperature preservation.
The Temax insulation can be delivered on rolls which
the customer can cut to size or can be produced as
ready-to-use insulated packaging for pallets, boxes,
crates, airplane pallets, etc... |
|
Temax
is a worldwide registered Trademark (TM) with
multiple patents on the insulation material
and ready-to-use insulation applications. |
|
|
|
|
Single use or multiple use
applications |
|
The
Temax insulation can be produced for single use or multiple use
applications. The Temax insulation is already successfully in use
for the transport and distribution of temperature controlled food
products, pharmaceuticals and chemicals in which chilled or
cooled, frozen or deep frozen, and ambient temperature products
are protected from unwanted external outer temperatures. The Temax
insulation is flexible, has a high insulation quality which can be
produced tailor made, is water resistant and is recyclable, even
partial bioligic degradable. |
|
Protocols on how to use the
Temax insulation |
|
Krautz-Temax
as the developer and producer of the Temax insulation material
offers also studies on the insulation technology and quality as
the logistic processes to close the cold chain or temperature
controlled supply chain. We have several protocols on how pallets
or boxes should be wrapped and packed in order to prevent cold
bridges and result in a optimal temperature preservation and
temperature protection. See also cold
chain implementation plan |
|
References and users |
|
The
Temax insulation material is already in use at some of the biggest
pharmaceutical companies, food and chemical companies, freight
forwarders and transport companies, airliners and shippers etc...
This in road transport, air cargo and sea freight as single use or
multiple use applications. |
