Loading the KTM22
The KTM22 Tower Euro Pallet is ideally suited for the transportation of:
Life Science Products:
- All vaccines, including C19 vaccines and ABIs
- API & diagnostic kits
- Biopharmaceutical solutions
- Diagnostics specimen samples
- Cell lines bacteria
- Micro organisms
- Proteins and other samples and solutions
- Clinical trial kits
- Any other product requiring a stable temperature environment for transportation
All KTM22 Tower Euro Pallet containers include built-in data loggers.
These loggers monitor internal temperatures from -95°C (-139°F) to 50°C (122°F).
Users can receive text or email alerts if a temperature excursion occurs. Automatic data downloads are also available during transit (excluding in-flight periods), as long as the logger is within range of the CX Gateway device.
All loggers are built to meet FDA, USP, EU and WHO standards.
The KTM22 Tower Euro Pallet is designed for year-round use across all destinations.
It uses one packaging instruction for every shipment. This helps reduce complexity and lowers uncertainty in both validation and daily operations.
Tower’s global network follows shared processes and standards. This ensures a consistent service for customers worldwide.
Customers can access the full range of Tower products through local teams. These teams understand specific customer requirements and provide support where and when it is needed
Tower Cold Chain recognises its role in helping move the supply chain from a linear model to a circular one.
Our reusable solution supports shared sustainability goals by reducing waste.
By keeping containers in use for longer, we reduce the need for disposal and recycling of temperature-controlled packaging.
