Phase Change Materials
Phase change materials, also known as PCM, are formulated to change phase at specific temperatures, providing cold chain management at just the right temperature.
Our phase change materials protect your payload and offer consistent cooling throughout the duration of shipping. Whether you require subzero, refrigerated, or control room temperatures, Temprecision International has the solution for you.
PCMs store and release energy, much like a battery, as they change phases (melt/solidify). Temprecision International offers a complete range of PCM to support temperatures from -21C to 22C.
Key Features
Temprecision International offers a variety of PCM formulations including organic, mineral-based, and chemical-based. Our team of scientists is continuously innovating in the area to expand our offering to meet each and every customer’s needs and protect your high-value precious cargo.
Benefits of Phase Change Materials
- Temperature Stability: PCMs offer precise temperature control, maintaining a consistent temperature range throughout transit, ensuring the integrity of temperature-sensitive products.
- Enhanced Product Integrity: PCMs help protect sensitive products from temperature fluctuations, ensuring they arrive at their destination in optimal condition, free from damage or degradation.
- Flexibility in Temperature Ranges: PCM formulations are available to accommodate a wide range of temperature requirements, from subzero, and refrigerated, to control room temperatures, catering to diverse cold chain needs.
- Regulatory Compliance: PCM solutions meet regulatory standards and compliance requirements for cold chain management, ensuring adherence to quality and safety regulations.
