Coolers Designed Specifically to Support Vaccine Supply Chain

Critical to maintaining vaccines at precise, manufacturer-recommended temperatures during storage and transit

MaxQ Research has launched transport and emergency vaccine coolers. The MaxPlus Vaccine Coolers can be integrated with temperature monitoring technology, to best store temperature sensitive biologics under continuous monitoring. With duration up to 12 hours and universal pack-outs, this cooler is expected to make a timely impact in health departments and immunization programs across the United States.

The vaccine coolers do not require electricity or ice to remain in temperature. Integrated, onboard digital data loggers provide audit ready temperature data, live temperature readouts and temperature reports via Bluetooth. Additionally, the cooler is delivered as a complete system, including gel packs, a shoulder strap and spring-loaded handles.

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed an unprecedented stress on both domestic and global vaccine supply chains. It is critical to maintain vaccine at precise, manufacturer recommended temperatures, during storage and transit. According to the Center for Disease Control, “Vaccine Storage and Handling Toolkit,” vaccines that are transported to off-site locations or satellite facilities, must use a Qualified Container or Portable Refrigerator. Additionally, the vaccine should have a Temperature Monitoring Device. Further, the guidelines also require each vaccine storage location to have an emergency vaccine storage and handling protocol in case of an equipment (refrigerator/freezer) failure.

The MaxPlus Vaccine Coolers are designed with proven Maxify™ thermal protection technology to offer a simple, economical and easy-to-implement solution. The coolers have been created to help transport the emergency storage of Flu and COVID-19 vaccine (when launched).

State health programs across the country are preparing to run mass vaccination camps in schools, community centers, county health centers, large healthcare systems and curbside programs at pharmacies. These vaccination camps will assist in rapid immunization. The MaxPlus Vaccine Cooler is engineered to help the immunization programs to plan and efficiently transport vaccine, at precise temperatures, while complying with the CDC regulations.
