Gel Packs For Shipping Pharmaceuticals

Trusted by Professionals for Safe, Reliable Transit

Today’s life science companies, such as pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors, face unique cold chain challenges, from maintaining precise temperature settings to ship medications to adopting more sustainable direct-to-consumer shipping practices. Additionally, with rising shipping costs, businesses seek compact and cost-effective refrigerants to help keep delivery expenses down while meeting an increased demand for direct-to-consumer shipping.

If you distribute temperature-sensitive life science products such as medicine, gel ice packs offer a cost-effective, sustainable packaging solution that enables accurate temperature control.

Our Gel Packs for Shipping Pharmaceuticals

Gel packs often serve as a necessary refrigerant in hybrid and passive temperature-controlled packaging in the pharmaceutical cold chain. They are easier and safer to handle and ship than alternatives such as dry ice. Gel packs are also typically available in various sizes, shapes and eutectic points to meet temperature control needs.

We offer several innovative gel pack options to help you maintain the required temperatures and prevent product degradation while transporting pharmaceuticals. Our gel packs are reusable, making them a cost-effective option, and designed to solve pain points related to shipping temperature-sensitive products.

Trusted When Cold Matters

If you’re seeking cost-effective, durable refrigerants for +30 F shipping needs, consider our GlacierTemp line of ice packs.

Trusted When Sustainability Matters

Our uniquely sustainable TerraTemp packs are ideal if your organization is interested in sustainability and reducing carbon footprint while maintaining accurate temperatures. They have a eutectic point of 32 F and are available in a range of sizes.

Trusted When Accuracy Matters

Our CuraTemp gel ice refrigerant is carefully formulated to provide accurate temperature controls and minimal expansion when frozen. Consisting of organic materials and semi-solid, non-toxic gel, CuraTemp packs are available in various eutectic points ranging from -10 F to +30 F.

Flexibility is important for me, and you can depend on Pelton Shepherd for that. I forgot to place my order once, and my sales rep worked with me to get them there that same day.
