Mediline packaging solutions were used in the first export shipment of “Foot and Mouth Disease Vaccines” for the Veterinary Sector, produced by the Turkish Republic ŞAP Institute for delivery to Saudi Arabia.
The provision of cold chain conditions in animal health products is equally as important as human health pharmaceuticals and perhaps even more. Because the spectrum of live stock products, such as meat, milk, or eggs are continuously consumed by people around the world. The animals are the source of income for the farmers as well. Animal health, and the effectiveness of drugs to prevent disease, is of significant concern. The proportion of drugs and vaccines representing Cold Chain Protection medications developed for animal health is increasing in quantity and value. For this reason, cold chain applications in Animal Health require the “Definitive Declaration of Acceptance” to be notified to the Ministry by all final receivers.
Animal health pharmaceutical and vaccine manufacturers also focus on maintaining high reliability packaging and good transport conditions to ensure that the cold chain is maintained, and even place a temperature recorder or indicators inside every shipping box, making it easier for their customer to accept.
