Case Study: Leading pharmaceutical Company reduces cold chain waste with Controlant

How Iceland reduced pharmaceutical cold chain waste to less than one percent

Leading pharmaceutical Company partnered with Controlant to address a critical cold chain challenge: ensuring vaccine and pharmaceutical products stayed within the required 2–8°C range across storage and transport. The company needed a fast, reliable way to monitor refrigeration units and prevent temperature excursions that could compromise product quality and patient safety.

Controlant implemented its real-time cold chain monitoring solution, using IoT tracking devices, cloud-based analytics, and 24/7 alerts to monitor temperature and humidity in real time. The result was a dramatic reduction in waste, with cold chain vaccine and medicine spoilage in Iceland falling to just 0.3%, and temperature-related losses nearly eliminated within twelve months.
