Temperature sensitive or temperature controlled pharmaceutical products

You would not really think about it, but there are a lot of pharmaceutical products which are temperature sensitive and need to be transported or stored in a temperature controlled environment. These temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals will lose their quality if the temperature limits, low or high, are not respected. The two biggest pharmaceutical product groups which are temperature sensitive are the chilled goods with temperature limits (+2°C to +8°C) and the ambient group with temperature limits (+15°C to +25°C). This last group did not need to be temperature controlled in the past but more and more countries are classifying this ambient group as a temperature sensitive group which need te be temperature controlled within (+15°C to +25°C) temperature limits. There are also other pharmaceutical products with temperature limits of (0°C to +25°C) and deep frozen pharmaceuticals.

.
Challenge in the pharmaceutical industry

The challenge in the temperature controlled pharmaceutical industry is to keep the temperature of the product within its temperature limits through the total transport or logistics known as the supply chain or cold chain. This means that all the actors within the cold chain such as the producers, distribution centers, resellers, transport companies, forwarders, airline and sea freight companies, etc… need to take the necessary measurements to keep the temperature within its limits. This is not an easy task, especially when multiple actors are active within the cold chain or when different products with different temperatures are distributed through the same cold chain.

.
Air freight of temperature sensitive or temperature controlled pharmaceuticals

The challenge becomes even greater when temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals are transported in extreme transport conditions as in air freight or sea freight. When these types of transports are used extreme external temperature conditions will appear which will have a bigger impact on the product temperature. Also the number of actors in the cold chain will increase. Forwarders, airliners, freight handling agents, etc… are active which increases the possible CCP’s “Critical control Points” in the cold chain where the product temperature can fluctuate. Below an overview is shown of the possible actors when an air freight transport is used.

.

.

Above is shown an example of a pallet with temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals in an air freight shipment from the producer in Brussels to the reseller in Singapore with a stop and overload in Dubai. The question in all this is what the temperature of the goods will be at each location and during the handling at each actor in the cold chain. 

.

Conclusion: keeping or respecting the required temperature limits of temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals at each actor in the temperature controlled supply chain or cold chain is not easy and needs some intense study. There are two ways to make sure that the required temperatures are kept being an active cooling technique where the surrounding air is cooled with a cooler engine or a passive cooling technique where insulation techniques are used as protection. Also a combination of both can be used. What all this is and how it works you can find on the other pages on this website.
