AcuTemp REPAQ™

The Reusable Enviro-friendly Program Assuring Quality

 

The AcuTemp REPAQ reuse program for passive shippers offers you a sustainable packaging option for your transport packaging arsenal.  Not only does the REPAQ program foster environmental responsibility by reducing landfill waste, it is the only reusable program that retests the thermal integrity of each passive shipper before reuse.

REPAQ -- How It Works

Customers choosing AcuTemp Qualified Shippers (see chart below) or a custom-designed shipper by AcuTemp can take advantage of REPAQ.  In the program, AcuTemp Shippers are returned to the company's manufacturing and processing facility by end users via a prepaid shipping label.  All shippers go through a visual inspection, and any obviously damaged components are replaced.  Next, they are cleaned in compliance with 21 CFR 211 Subpart 94.  Finally, the thermal components of the box, tracked by customer and serial number, are then retested to original specifications in order to confirm the thermal performance before the box is returned to service.

Why retest the thermal qualities of your package before reusing it?

Thermal testing has shown that all insulations degrade over time and passive shippers have varying life cycles depending on the type of insulation used.  The thermal component of AcuTemp shippers utilizes a patented box-in-a-bag molded vacuum insulation technology which has shown to provide far superior thermal integrity over other cold chain passive packaging such as urethanes, polystyrenes, and standard vacuum insulated panelized boxes.  When the rigors of shipping are added to the equation, it becomes even more important to test the thermal qualities of shippers that are being considered for reuse. 

The AcuTemp REPAQ program addresses the most important component of an insulated shipper -- its ability to properly maintain temperature throughtout the shipping cycle.  Because all boxes in the program are thermally tested no matter how many times they may be reused, you can "REPAQ" your AcuTemp boxes with confidence knowing they will thermally perform each time to your expectations.
