Brilliant solution for hospital cold chain packaging needs

Challenge

Healthcare providers, medical facilities and hospitals are always looking for sustainable solutions to store, transport and deliver medicine. As a leading healthcare products distributor across Asia including in Thailand, we are constantly improving our cold chain management systems for our business partners.

In terms of cold chain packaging, we wanted a product to further reduce the carbon footprint by replacing dependency on single-use Styrofoam containers.

Approach

Backed by an experienced team who are familiar with the production of biological agents for the healthcare industry, we undertook the development of the B-Box. The B-Box is a temperature-controlled cold chain box that is 100 percent returnable and reusable available for both 80-liter and 40-liter packaging.

The B-Box, also referred to as the Brilliant Box, uses an excellent insulating material that is easy to clean and is ultra-lightweight. Yet, it is also robust and designed to be stackable for easy storage, safe transport and built to be more durable than the traditional Styrofoam boxes. In addition, each box comes with a unique code that allows clients to track the exact location of the package when in use.

Result

The B-Box was initially introduced to five hospitals in Thailand, and by the end of 2018 more than 25 hospitals were already using the 80-liter B-Box. Following this success, we introduced the 40-liter variant which is now being used by more than 200 customers in Bangkok and the Central Region across Thailand.
