At va-Q-tec, we pride ourselves on protecting the temperature sensitive goods of these customers. va-Q-tec is THE thermal insulation expert and our products provide our customers with dependable, energy efficient temperature control and insulation to comply with international GDP standards, no matter what outside circumstances bring. Our fleet of rental boxes and containers supports all needs of cold chain logistics and will revolutionize the pharmaceutical cold chain.”

va-Q-tec has been pioneering the thermal insulation industry for more than a decade. As the global market demands reliable logistics and packaging in a perfected temperature controlled environment, va-Q-tec’s vacuum insulation panels (“VIPs”) and phase change materials (“PCMs”) offer more effective and sustainable solutions for a global customer base. va-Q-tec’s advanced passive technology keeps the inside temperature of its packaging solutions constant for up to five days without the need for additional external energy sources. Currently, there is no other proven system out there that can reach this level of performance without external sources.
