  • “The events of 2020 require rapid change and innovation for businesses, as does serving a global network."
  • The four-module training process focuses on key aspects of cold chain logistics for healthcare, pharma, and more.

With news of the COVID vaccine in the deployment phase, pharma-focused logistics processes are at the top of mind for global distributors preparing to meet demand in transporting these and other pharmaceuticals requiring temperature-controlled packaging. Pelican BioThermal’s recently launched School of Cool aims to inform, educate, and prepare its global network of distributors and customers on how to effectively prepare and utilize its temperature-controlled solutions product line.

“The events of 2020 require rapid change and innovation for businesses, as does serving a global network,” said David Williams, President of Pelican BioThermal. “School of Cool shows our continued commitment to ensuring our customers, distributors, and new employees have access to information on how to use our high-performance temperature-controlled packaging when they need it most.”

Through this on-demand and self-service style training, the leaders at Pelican BioThermal provide a four-module training process that focuses on key aspects of cold chain logistics for healthcare, pharma, biotech, and general business markets. The online learning platform currently offers four modules beginning with “What is Temperature Controlled Packaging?” and finishing with “Phase Change Material Conditioning.”

Within these four modules, distributors and customers have the opportunity to learn about the types of temperature-controlled packaging available, types of phase change materials, payload capacities, temperature ranges, and more. Pelican BioThermal confirmed additional modules are on the horizon addressing temperature ranges, parcels versus pallets, dry ice shippers, and more information on the NanoCool™ push-button cooling technology.
