Cold Chain

Transporting perishable goods, whether biological materials, food products, pharmaceuticals or other environmentally sensitive items, poses unique challenges. Cold chain shipments require close monitoring of temperature, and humidity and other parameters to maintain product quality, integrity and ensure regulatory compliance. Careful electronic tracking lowers disposal rates, reduces the costs of spoilage and are more efficient and effective than manual methods.

Evigia offers sensing products that are well suited for automated tracking, condition monitoring and overall visibility and management of goods and assets along every step of the cold chain. Our active RFID sensing tags operate under a wide range of temperatures and can detect and log the temperature at user-programmed intervals and levels. The data are stored on the tag and can be retrieved at any time, allowing continuous maintenance of the cold chain throughout the shipping process. Users can also program alarm thresholds that determine if a violation of a specified temperature, humidity value or impact level has occurred.
