Stable transport of COVID-19 vaccines is of vital importance, as this is the only way they retain their effectiveness. Special cool boxes and packaging materials made from particle foams, such as airpop engineered air (EPS) or EPP, ensure that COVID vaccines reach their destination safely and intact.<\/p>\n\n\n Particle foams generally consist of 98% air. The thermal insulation of this material is unrivaled, even at temperatures of -20 \u00b0 or even -70 \u00b0 Celsius, which is necessary to keep the vaccines in good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n The temperature in medical cool boxes made from particle foams remains constant for up to several days. Particle foams are also shock resistant, hygienic, resistant to chemicals, dimensionally stable, lightweight and can be recycled easily many times. In this way, this durable material provides the best and highest quality protection for, in this case, the glass injection vials containing the COVID-19 vaccines.<\/p>\n Thanks to these remarkable characteristics, particle foams are often used as protective packaging materials<\/a> for pharmaceutical and medical transport, for example for the transport and protection of human organs, for surgical transplants and other applications<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Particle foams are very sustainable, especially when compared to other materials such as cardboard. For example, much less water and energy is consumed during the production process.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n In the logistics process, CO2 emissions are reduced and transport damage is kept to a minimum.<\/p>\n Even after use, clean materials can be completely recycled over and over while retaining valuable properties. The material does not harm the environment and is perfectly aligned with the circular economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you would like to know more about these options or other particle foam solutions, then contact the particle foam engineers at HSV.
