Transporting Billions Of Dollars' Worth Of Healthcare Products

More and more these days, healthcare manufacturers are experiencing ever-changing demands and finding the need to outsource their advanced logistics functions to third-party service providers. Choosing that partner is a big decision and one that requires careful consideration of supply chain expertise in governmental and regulatory guidelines, warehouse operations, transportation, new technology, and managing people processes and procedures.

“Our standardized Styrofoam shippers were easily affected by extreme changes in temperature, causing potential product loss and waste,” said Dean Berg, V.P. Business Development. “In addition to possible product loss, we would also incur the indirect cost of investigating temperature excursions. We needed something that performs better and is more durable with a simpler pack out process. Another important goal was to find something reusable — to support our company’s green initiative.”

Working with ATS Healthcare, a closed loop program was developed using the Credo Cube® Solution from Minnesota Thermal Science (MTS).
