Food Industry

Moving a single product from production to supermarket shelf or restaurant kitchen involves many individuals, lots of equipment, several different vendors and multiple facilities. Successfully managing each step in the cold chain reduces shrink, enhances freshness and ensures product integrity.

Last year, Sensitech supported cold chain monitoring programs in 15 of the top 20 U.S. supermarkets for the leading growers and producers of meat, seafood and produce, as well as for the leading foodservice companies worldwide.

We’ve saved companies millions of dollars and are always looking for innovative ways to improve your cold chain process. That’s why we’re a world leader in providing solutions for protecting your perishable foods.

Life Science & Chemical Industry

Each year, Sensitech transports millions of dollars of temperature-sensitive goods from one location to another – from lifesaving vaccines to clinical trial materials and other pharmaceuticals. Our quality system has been audited by international standards, as well as 18 out of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies in the world.

The powerful combination of our products and applications help our customers save money, reduce loss and comply with rigorous regulatory requirements – ISO 9001:2000, CE, EMC and NIST – while ensuring the quality, efficacy and integrity of their products.

Our temperature monitoring systems provide highly accurate information for dispute resolution and accept/reject decisions, and ensure that your pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive products are not compromised in the supply chain. Through comprehensive audits and analysis programs, we provide an accurate picture of the treatment of your goods in transit, helping you take control of these highly valuable, perishable products.

Cold Chain Analytics

Traditional temperature-monitoring systems are typically used to make accept/reject decisions or for dispute resolution, but Sensitech’s Cold Chain Analytics service also helps you prevent problems in your cold chain – the most effective way to improve your bottom line.

Cold Chain Analytics is a full-service solution that drives the day-to-day retrieval, storage, compilation, analysis and reporting of your cold chain data. Temperature data, gathered from your cold chain, is translated into pertinent, meaningful information that allows managers to reduce costs, improve quality and increase profitability.
In this two-phase process, we provide diagnostic services, identifying and setting priorities for targeted operational improvements, and prescriptive services, planning and executing those improvements.

Time & Temperature Sensitive (TATS) Material Applications

Know the Condition of Time and Temperature-Sensitive Materials as They Progress Through the Supply Chain
The integrity of the supply chain for time and temperature-sensitive (TATS) materials in the industrial chemicals market is dependent on a broad range of factors, including :

• Transportation mode - air, train, ship, truck
• Physical movements - shock and vibration
• Carrier and container types
• Temperature extremes – sensitivities to cold and heat
  – Weather, season, climate zones, transportation logistics
  – Accidental freezing or melting

Industrial Chemicals Are Vulnerable to Temperature Abuse
Because of the complex handoffs within the distribution and storage segments, many industrial chemical materials are vulnerable to temperature fluctuations - including TATS products such as:

• Composite materials
• CMP slurries
• Aqueous dispersions
• PTFE powders
• Epoxy molding compounds
• Solder pastes
• Adhesives and sealants

Overcome Temperature Abuse with Good Cold Chain Management Practices
Good Cold Chain Management Practices (GCCMP) provide additional emphasis on quality in the industrial chemicals market because they ensure TATS materials have not been temperature abused or experienced product degradation. Ensuring the integrity and full value of your products strengthens customer and partner relationships, as well as enriches your company’s brand. GCCMP also supports your company’s internal SOPs and QC/QA processes and enables compliance with current and pending standards and accreditation programs.

Shipping Studies

Before you create new packaging for a product or make adjustments to improve your existing logistics system, it’s best to understand the optimal balance between your uncontrollable risks and your controllable costs.
Once you know and understand the factors you can control – carriers, delivery times, routes, packaging and product value – and the factors you cannot control – weather, delays, handlers, cargo placement and other unknowns – you’ll be more confident about your risk management decisions.
A Sensitech shipping study gives you insight into these factors and helps you find that optimal balance. Our analysis will help you to make decisions based on everything from types of packaging and differences between carriers to seasonal and geographic variations.

Clinical Supplies Management

Millions of dollars are invested in clinical research and trials. Eighty percent of clinical trials fail. Can you risk not knowing if your product was exposed to extreme temperatures?

Avoid compromising your clinical trial’s success by unknowingly exposing your products to harmful temperatures. And, don’t lose valuable time and materials because of poor product handling.

Sensitech’s Clinical Supplies Management service provides a comprehensive and effective solution to managing your clinical supplies cold chain. Using our temperature monitors and indicators, as well as customizable software, we can track and analyze your products and highlight costly inefficiencies within your cold chain.

We monitor temperatures of critical clinical trial materials in varying shipping environments, and provide global access to temperature and shipping information 24/7, so you can make quick and timely decisions. The disposition of every shipment is stored and maintained in a secure environment to support your FDA filings.

Facility Temperature Mapping

Every drug has stability data that dictates its required temperature storage range. The FDA requires that drugs be stored under appropriate temperatures so that their identity, strength, quality, effectiveness and purity are not affected. However, many variables impact temperatures within a facility, including airflow, facility layout, traffic patterns and seasonal extremes.
Sensitech’s Facility Temperature Mapping (FTM) studies are the most efficient way to determine the precise temperature profile of – and variances within – a facility. Wireless, self-contained TempTale 4 monitors are easy to install, and can be placed anywhere in your facility for maximum flexibility and to detect issues in suspected problem areas.
This cost-effective service is for managers who need to document their warehouse, storage facility or cooler’s temperature cycles in order to prove they can safely store products. Once downloaded, Sensitech’s validated monitors provide detailed, accurate reports on the thermal variances within your warehouse.

Cold Chain Management + Training

Sensitech Asia offers strong local knowledge solution-based consultancy recommending appropriate and best use of technology customised to local conditions. Customised training helps management and operations line and staff members, supply partners as well as customers understand the concept of Cold Chain Management, best practices and updates on regulatory requirements.
