From Oman to Malta in stable conditions
During the COVID-19 pandemia, Tardigrad helped organize a temperature sensitive shipment from Oman to Malta, via Qatar and Prague.
- The package: Medications (Dangerous Goods), requiring ambient and chilled temperature ranges.
- The journey: From Salalah to Muscat (over 1000 km) by car, from Muscat to Doha by plane, then another 2 flights: from Doha to Prague and from Prague to Malta. The last 11 km from Malta airport to the city of Paola.
- The challenge: To keep a stable temperature in varying weather conditions: Salalah 26 °C, Doha 23 °C, Prague -2 °C and Malta 15 °C. And to manage the delivery with essentially reduced flights during the pandemic.
- The solution: Our team used Cool Guard Advance, with temperature range 2–8 °C and 15–25 °C, and duration up to 120 hours. The system has vacuum insulation panels (PCM) to reduce excursions and increase compliance. In Prague we re-packed it to freshly preconditioned boxes.
- The results: Both boxes arrived to final destination on time and in right temperature condition as confirmed by data loggers report.
