Pelican BioThermal launches its new pioneering pallet shipper system, Crēdo™Cargo, the latest in its range of innovative temperature-controlled packaging solutions servicing the global market, at IQPC Europe taking place today in Frankfurt, Germany. The new reusable and reliable bulk shipper is pioneering in its use of phase change material (PCM) coolants and is designed specifically to accept a full ISO pallet. Available in 1903L volume and covering temperature ranges +2C to +8C and +15C to +25C, Credo Cargo sets new standards in the global, passive bulk shipper market.

“IQPC Europe is the perfect forum to launch our new Crēdo Cargo to the global market,” said David Williams, President of Pelican BioThermal. “The development of this innovative product demonstrates how our Crēdo range is successfully evolving and expanding to meet the market needs. Once again we are proud to be at the forefront of pioneering design in the temperature-controlled packaging industry.”

Use of PCM coolants, coupled with the innovative slot-in components designed for rapid loading and unloading, Crēdo Cargo ensures high performance and consistent temperature stability in excess of 120 hours. Its robust design makes it ideal for the rigors of global logistics applications, while maintaining the simple ease of use indicative to the Crēdo Cube™ product line.

“Crēdo Cargo addresses the logistic challenges that most concern customers looking to transport large temperature-critical payloads on a global scale,” explained Kevin Valentine, Pelican BioThermal’s Vice President in Product Development and Engineering. “This cost-effective bulk shipper is lightweight, and its easy-to-load coolant panels make for rapid loading and unloading. We are confident this will help revolutionize the temperature-controlled packaging bulk shipper marketplace for passive alternatives.”
