The Overlooked Waste in Cold Chain Logistics Cold chain logistics isn’t just about keeping medicines at the right temperature—it also generates significant waste that often goes unnoticed. From expired products to packaging and energy waste, every stage of the supply chain has an environmental and economic impact. What Makes Up Cold Chain Waste? Expired & […]

Bridging GMP and GDP: Ensuring Cold Chain Integrity from Manufacturing to Distribution: In the pharmaceutical industry, maintaining the quality of temperature-sensitive products requires strict adherence to both Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Good Distribution Practices (GDP). GMP ensures medicines are produced in a controlled environment, free from contamination, while GDP ensures that the same care

Digital Twins: Revolutionizing Pharmaceutical Cold Chain Management In pharmaceutical industries, maintaining an unbroken cold chain isn’t just a logistical challenge—it’s a matter of life and death. With temperature-sensitive medications representing over $340 billion in global pharmaceutical sales, even minor cold chain failures can have devastating consequences. Enter digital twins: a groundbreaking technology that promises to

Cold Chain Management: Career Opportunities Beyond Pharmaceuticals in Medicine, Life Sciences, Nursing, and Diagnostics Introduction When we think of cold chain management, the pharmaceutical industry often comes to mind. However, the importance of cold chain logistics stretches far beyond just medicine. From life sciences research to nursing and diagnostic labs, cold chain systems are crucial

Cold Chain Management: A Critical Skill for Pharmacy Students and the Pharmaceutical Industry Cold Chain and Its Importance in the Pharmaceutical Industry In a world where temperature-sensitive medications save millions of lives daily, the journey of these drugs from manufacture to patient is just as crucial as their development. Cold chain management, often overlooked in

Cooling-as-a-Service (CaaS): Revolutionizing the Future of Cooling Solutions In today’s world, the demand for efficient and sustainable cooling solutions is growing rapidly, driven by factors like climate change, increasing urbanization, and the rising need for temperature-sensitive industries such as pharmaceuticals, food storage, and data centers. Cooling-as-a-Service (CaaS) is emerging as a game-changing model that offers businesses an

Climate strategies must take vaccination into account Climate-driven shifts in temperature, precipitation and nutrient availability are altering the transmission and distribution of human, animal and plant pathogens. More than half of all infectious diseases that affect humans are aggravated by climate change, with low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) bearing a ten-times-higher burden of infectious diseases

The Severity of Temperature Control in Clinical Trials Temperature control is paramount in clinical trials due to the high sensitivity of trial materials. Biological samples and investigational drugs are prone to degradation if exposed to temperatures outside their required ranges. Even minor temperature deviations can compromise the safety and efficacy of these materials, leading to
