Solution overview
CCT Enshield™: Robust, Reliable, Reusable Cold Chain Protection
CCT Enshield™ is the industry’s first reusable PCM thermal cover system engineered for precise, long-lasting temperature control during pharmaceutical logistics. Powered by advanced Phase Change Material (PCM) gel, Enshield offers unmatched protection against both heat and cold across air, road, and sea freight. Its lightweight, modular design fits global pallet sizes, supports quick assembly, and can be easily adjusted for shorter payloads. Uniquely, Enshield recharges when placed into refrigeration during shipment—extending its protection across multiple transit legs. A smart, sustainable alternative to traditional pallet shippers, Enshield ensures product integrity while reducing costs and environmental impact.
Enshield is designed to add extra protection and reduce risks when transported in validated and predictable lanes and/or pharma corridor or with a advanced passive Tower container.
Reduce your total cost per dose distributed to up to 50%

Evaluation Criteria
Enshield was tested in triplicate at medium thermal mass at various soak temperatures to simulate Summer and Winter conditions, with a single report generated for each temperature.
Performance, Protection & Reliability
- Over 15 times the duration of standard pallet cover
- Maintains consistent, temperature-controlled environment longer than regular thermal blanket reducing risk of excursions during >6-hour unplug periods or periods of excursion risks
- Designed to provide advanced thermal protection, reducing risk of temperature excursions and product loss
- Help stabilize the product temperature caused during short term cold chain breaks (aircraft loading/unloading, X-docking, etc.)
- Protect against extreme hot and cold exposure in a controlled shipping lanes
Innovation
- Six unique PCM variations for diverse temperature needs
- Compatibility with US and EU pallet size
- Lightweight design for enhanced handling, transport efficiency and sustainability
- ‘Recharges’ or hibernate during transit when loaded into a controlled environment to continue offering the same level of protection at your next offload and extend duration
- Ideal for air, road and sea freight shipments and situations where delays, such as at customs, are a risk.
Operational efficiency
- Global availability and easy return through our hub network
- Two-piece design for quick two-minute assembly
- Co-Mingling Products of Varied Temperature Ranges on a Single Outbound Truck
- Purchase and lease options available
- Minimal increase to external dimensions
Sustainable
- Circularity – a truly long-term. reusable system. Coolant and blanket can be refurbished.
- Cold Chain Technologies can manage reverse logistics, refurbishment, and conditioning along with flexible ownership and lease options under the ReNew return-refurb program
- Lower carbon footprint compared to traditional thermal covers, minimizing waste and environmental impact
Compliance
- Global assurance, used by a wide range of pharmaceutical companies organizations
- Compliant with GDP guidelines, WHO guidelines, USP storage and distribution practices and IATA regulations
