This gives our TempControl customers another option to ship critical life-saving pharmaceuticals to any corner of the globe at the desired temperature,” said Manu Jacobs, United Cargo’s Director of Specialty Products. “The Releye container sets a new standard for secure cold chain transport at a time when the biopharma industry is looking for groundbreaking solutions.”
