Temperature Controlled Packaging for Pharmaceuticals Overview
Temperature controlled packaging is used in the packaging of chemicals and pharmaceutical drugs to maintain a constant temperature. These are used to maintain a product in a specific low temperature range from the time of manufacturing till the time of consumption. This packaging is used to preserve, extend and ensure the shelf life of chemicals and pharmaceutical drugs. In addition, these also maintain product specific environment parameters which include air quality levels.
Temperature controlled packaging are used while the transportation of temperature sensitive pharmaceutical drugs in remote location. With the rise in the shipment of temperature sensitive pharmaceutical products globally, there is a great demand for temperature controlled packaging. Demand for temperature controlled packaging is increasing as the quality of pharmaceutical products has direct impact on patient safety and therapies. More global clinical trials are requiring stricter temperature regulations, which has resulted in the increased growth of temperature controlled packaging.
Any deviations in temperature, beyond the specific range of pharmaceutical products are required to be stored and shipped at, could have a terribly harmful effect on the payload. These effects can damage the container’s contents and the efficiency of the products being transported. Thus, to protect pharmaceutical products from any harmful effects, they must be packed within temperature controlled container to transport them to remote locations.
Market Size & Forecast
The global temperature controlled packaging for pharmaceuticals market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 9% over the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027. Temperature controlled packaging techniques provide protection, identification, information and containment to product during storage, carriage and until the product is consumed. The need for efficient temperature control of sensitive pharmaceutical products has resulted in increased demand for more advanced temperature controlled packaging techniques. Delivering drugs such as insulin or the cancer treatment drugs require constant temperature control to maintain their stability. Through temperature controlled packaging, these drugs can easily transported to particular locations, preventing any harmful external effects.

Growth Drivers & Challenges
Increasing Concerns Regarding Safe Transportation of Pharmaceutical Products
Temperature controlled packaging solutions are perfect for the transport of temperature sensitive products in extreme conditions, such as through prolonged periods and extreme heat condition. This is the major factor that drives the growth of temperature controlled packaging market. This packaging technique provides the consumers with higher performance, more efficiency than any other insulating materials, better temperature maintenance, and a reduced thickness on the sides.
World Health Organization estimated global liquid vaccine wastage at a staggering 25%, primarily attributed to improper handling and transportation process. As a part of this, various programs have been initiated to monitor vaccine wastage. These programs also focus on proper handling and transportation of vaccines and in turn, are driving the demand for temperature controlled packaging.
Growing Number of Diseases
The number of disease outbreaks globally has impelled pharmaceutical industry to focus on advanced drug solutions for different types of diseases. Several diseases that have witnessed growth in the incidences in the past years include diabetes, cancer, obesity and Alzheimer's. Around 194 million people around the world have diabetes, and the World Health Organization estimates the number of incidences will reach 366 million by the year 2030. Thus, developing technology and reusable packaging are expected to drive the market growth in the coming years. Temperature controlled packaging solutions are used to transport clinical trial distribution products, drugs, vaccines, donor organs, and blood transfers. All these factors are anticipated to drive the global market growth during the forecast period.
High Cost of Advanced Temperature Controlled Packaging
High cost of advanced temperature controlled packaging is anticipated to be a major restraint for the market. Several players in the market choose to go for substituted packaging products, which are of low cost but are not equally efficient. This affects the lifetime of the medicine and possess a serious constraint for the pharmaceutical packaging market.
