When high value products are transported there is not always the facility to place the goods undercover for the entire period, and many products are susceptible to damage from heat extremes and direct sunlight.
Logistics companies specializing in pharmaceutical and healthcare export services have experienced problems with temperature variations and this problem has been resolved with the introduction of Thermal Pallet Covers manufactured by Protective Packaging Ltd.
Thermal covers may be used on aircraft cargo pallets for temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical products to provide short-term protection. They are valuable as a precaution if products are temporarily exposed to direct sunlight, for instance, on the apron at the airport. They protect the products from solar spikes and variations in temperature, helping to maintain quality and freshness.
