HydroFreeze™: the ultimate solution for frozen food logistics

In the field of temperature-sensitive logistics, maintaining a consistent frozen climate is a requirement for numerous industries and applications. For pharmaceuticals, biologics or other delicate goods, any interruption in the cold chain can have disastrous consequences. This is where Coolpack’s HydroFreeze™ comes in, providing a reliable, safe and durable solution to maintain temperatures as low as -21°C.

The reality of ultralow temperatures

Many products require storage and transport at ultra-low temperatures to maintain their integrity and efficacy. Pharmaceuticals, vaccines and certain biologics are good examples. Exposure to higher temperatures, even for short periods of time, can lead to the degradation of these products, rendering them ineffective and potentially unsafe.

Disadvantages of traditional methods

Traditional methods of frozen transport, such as dry ice, have inherent drawbacks. Dry ice is effective, but is classified as a hazardous material and therefore requires special handling, packaging and transportation protocols. This adds complexity, additional costs and safety concerns to the logistics process.

HydroFreeze™: cool solution without complications

Coolpack’s HydroFreeze™ technology offers an attractive alternative to dry ice by providing reliable freezing capabilities without the associated hazards and logistical headaches. This innovative cooling solution uses a specially formulated, non-toxic and drain-safe liquid that freezes at -21°C and effectively maintains this temperature throughout the cold chain.

Key benefits of HydroFreeze™

HydroFreeze™ offers numerous advantages. Unlike dry ice, HydroFreeze™ is non-hazardous, eliminating the risks involved in handling and transporting hazardous goods. This makes it a safer choice for both personnel and the environment.


Ease of use

HydroFreeze™ products are incredibly easy to use. Just freeze them at the recommended temperature, pack them with your temperature-sensitive goods in insulated containers and you’re ready to go!


Sustainability

Sustainability is at the heart of Coolpack’s business philosophy. HydroFreeze™ solutions are designed for multiple use, reducing waste. When it’s time to dispose of them, the drain-safe liquid can be safely flushed down the sink with water, minimizing environmental impact.


Versatility

HydroFreeze™ is available in a wide range of sizes, so there is always a perfect solution for your specific needs. Whether you need a custom solution or a standard product, Coolpack has it for you!


Reliable performance

HydroFreeze™ is designed to maintain a consistent temperature of -21°C, ensuring the integrity of your valuable products during their journey. Rigorous testing and quality control measures ensure optimal performance even during long-distance transportation.

HydroFreeze™ versus EasiFreeze™

HydroFreeze™ is the ideal choice for frozen applications requiring temperatures around -21°C. It offers a longer temperature retention time compared to EasiFreeze™, making it perfect for longer shipments.


EasiFreeze™ for fast freezing

EasiFreeze™ offers shorter freezing times and can reach the desired temperature about 33% faster than HydroFreeze™. This makes it a suitable choice for applications where fast freezing is critical.

HydroFreeze™ in the pharmaceutical industry

Many vaccines, especially live attenuated vaccines, require storage and transport at ultra-low temperatures (-20°C to -80°C) to maintain efficacy. HydroFreeze™, with its freezing point of -21°C, provides a reliable solution for last-mile delivery and short-distance transport of certain vaccines.


Clinical trials

Shipping temperature-sensitive research drugs, biological samples and clinical trial materials often requires consistent freezing conditions. HydroFreeze™ ensures sample integrity and complies with strict regulations.


Delivery directly to patients

As personalized medicine and home treatments gain ground, HydroFreeze™ provides a safe and convenient way to deliver temperature-sensitive medication directly to patients.

HydroFreeze™ in the food and beverage industry

High-quality frozen foods such as certain seafood, gourmet ice cream and specialty meats benefit from the freezing capabilities of HydroFreeze™, maintaining their quality and extending their shelf life. Food manufacturers and testing laboratories transporting samples for quality control or research purposes can also rely on HydroFreeze™ to maintain sample integrity during transport.

Last-mile delivery and short-distance transportation

HydroFreeze™ provides a cost-effective and safe alternative to dry ice for last-mile deliveries of frozen foods, especially in urban environments where handling hazardous materials can be challenging. For regional deliveries or transportation between facilities within a controlled network, HydroFreeze™ also provides a reliable and reusable solution for maintaining frozen temperatures.

Other industries in which HydroFreeze™ is used

In the chemical industry, certain products such as chemicals, reagents and industrial materials require storage and transport at low temperatures. HydroFreeze™ can be used to ensure product stability and prevent degradation. In the aerospace industry, the non-hazardous nature of HydroFreeze™ makes it the perfect solution for transporting temperature-sensitive components or materials.
