How we’re equipped »
Bringing Hope to Peru
When a child in South America was badly burned, a logistics manager in Texas needed to get a skin graft to Peru quickly and reliably.
Why he chose American »Active and passive solutions
We offer both active and passive temperature-controlled solutions. Our procedures have been tested time and again, so you can rest easy knowing your shipment will reach its destination at its desired temperature.
Active
Our active solution employs advanced, temperature-controlled containers to actively regulate temperature levels.
Passive
Our passive solutions accomodate bulk and parcel shipments. For bulk air freight, our advanced passive containers are ULD Aircraft Certified Temperature Controlled Containers, with no PMC, straps or nets required. Our parcel passive solutions protect pre-packaged shipments with cold packs or dry ice by our expert handlers and temperature-controlled environments along the cold chain. With state-of-the-art temperature facilities, passive shipments can be stored in controlled room temperature (CRT), refrigerated (COL) or frozen (FRO) facilities in transit, where available.
