Cold Chain Packaging Applications
Depending on the destination and time of year, shippers’ needs can vary widely, which means cold chain packaging manufacturers face a real challenge in providing the right level of protection. Too weak, and shipments arrive damaged; too robust, and packaging is too heavy and too expensive.
Use Varcode technology to get hard numbers on the level of strength your shippers need. Our Varcode Smart Data Solution™ (VSDS) powered by our Time-Temperature Recorders and dashboard can give you data on the cumulative temperature of your shipment at during its journey at a fraction of the cost of a data logger system. This data can help you design the packaging that you need for any place at any time of year.
Packaging Cold Chain Temperature Tracking Technology
The VSDS™ was designed to give cold chain logistics companies detailed data on the condition of their shipments. Driven by our Digital Time-Temperature Indicators, our patented Smart TagsTM utilizes barcodes that dynamically shift in response to changes in shipment temperature. Using off-the-shelf barcode readers or Varcode’s iOS or Android apps, your cold chain logistics professionals can capture data on the temperature of a shipment at any point in the journey, allowing you to capture precise measurements on temperature changes along the way.
No labor-intensive data analysis is required! At any point during shipment, you’ll have access to recorded data via our online dashboard. And for direct updates, configure our STMSTM Management system to send automated alerts at the time of the scan to specific team members, alerting them when a shipment is in danger of exceeding a specified temperature range for a predetermined amount of time.
While our system is flexible enough to integrate alongside existing infrastructure, we have designed the VSDS™ to function fully as a stand-alone system, with no need for expensive data loggers.
