The invention relates to a stacking container (1) for the temperature controlled transport of food, comprising an outer container (3) with an outer container base (31) and an outer container wall (32) which are connected together so as to form a receiving area (33) which is open on one side. The stacking container (1) additionally comprises an inner container (2) with an inner container base (21) and an inner container wall (22) which are connected together so as to form a container area (23) which is open on one side. The inner container wall (22) comprises an upper edge section (221), and the outer container base (31) comprises a lower edge section (311), said upper edge section and lower edge section being designed in a complementary manner in order to engage into each other when stacking containers (1) are stacked one over the other such that the outer container base (31) of an upper stacking container (1) in the stack forms a cover for a stacking container (1) arranged therebelow, and a vacuum insulating element (5) is arranged between the inner container wall (22) and the outer container wall (32) and between the inner container base (21) and the outer container base (31).

The thermal bag (2) is made of thermally insulating composite material folded to form a bottom and welded along lateral borders (3) to form a body (1) of the bag with a mouth (5) at the level of which a handle (7A, 7B) is applied. The composite material defines a bottom folded in an accordion-like fashion opposite the mouth of the bag, and a laminar stiffening element (15) of the accordion-like bottom is disposed inside the bag.

A storage system for storing a drug includes a container, at least one passive cooling system, and an active cooling system. The container includes an interior volume to accommodate at least one drug. The at least one passive cooling system is disposed within the container and includes a phase change material. The active cooling system is operably coupled with the container and, when in an operational mode, maintains a desired temperature within the interior volume of the container.

A food storage container cooling system with a food storage container with walls, at least one wall defining an internal compartment with a top and a bottom, wherein the internal compartment is open at the top and closed at the bottom, and a reusable ice pack that is sized and shaped to fit into the compartment.

A storage unit comprises a casing defining an interior space for holding at least one item, a thermal element lining an interior surface of at least one side of the casing, and at least one thermal battery thermally coupled to the thermal element.

This present disclosure provides a vessel assembly for use in temperature sensitive shipping that can maintain a payload temperature across a range of temperatures. Importantly, the vessel assembly of the present disclosure reduces the overall packaging materials used in a shipper box and prevents the “wrong” mixture of PCM-containing vessels from being used.

A packaging system for shipping a temperature-sensitive product is provided. The packaging system includes a thermally-insulated transport container providing a housing for the temperature-sensitive product and separate temperature-controlling packs and a separate rack for placement within the transport container for arranging the temperature-controlling packs. Each of the transport container and the rack has walls that are fully removable and able to be independently re-assembled during loading of the packaging system with the temperature-sensitive product and temperature-controlling packs.

A cooling coaster includes a coaster body and an internal reservoir. The coaster body has an upper face, a lower face, a plurality of side faces between the upper and lower faces and a stabilizing structure. There is a lip at the upper face. A port communicates between the internal reservoir and one of the faces. A plug is configured to selective seal the port. A cooling substance is provided to the internal reservoir. A method for cooling a beverage includes providing a coaster body having an upper face, a lower face, and a plurality of side faces between the upper and lower faces, through a port, supplying a cooling substance to an internal reservoir in the coaster body and placing a plug in the port to seal the internal reservoir.

A mobile vaccine carrier and method for operating the carrier. The carrier includes a housing having a lid preferably hinged to a base member, a vaccine storage member disposed within the housing and defining a storage space for a plurality of vaccine containers; and a cooling element disposed within the housing. The vaccine storage member further includes an inner container defining the storage space and having an inlet opening for placing and removing vaccine containers, a movable vaccine container holder and a cover member disposed on the lid. The vaccine container holder has an abutment portion abutting against an outer portion of the inner container so that the inlet opening is covered by the vaccine container holder and at least a part of the cover member protrudes into the storage space when the lid is in a closed position.

Disclosed is a delivery system including an order information transmission step of transmitting customer order information to a manager server, a shipping preparation step of transmitting the order information to a distribution center to prepare for shipping, a delivery preparation step of preparing packaging configured to store a product and an electronic paper display (EPD) configured to display delivery information about the packaging, a delivery-start tagging step of tagging a manager terminal including a second Bluetooth communication system and a second near-field communication system on the packaging including a first Bluetooth communication system and a first near-field communication system using near-field communication to activate the EPD, and a state information transmission step of collecting internal or external state information about the packaging during delivery of the product to transmit the collected state information to a delivery driver terminal including a third Bluetooth communication system and a third near-field communication system.
