  Phase Change Materials (PCM) – The Future of Cold Chain and Pharma Logistics The global demand for cold chain solutions is rising rapidly as industries move towards safer and more reliable methods of transporting sensitive goods. From fresh produce and frozen seafood to pharmaceuticals and vaccines, the role of Phase Change Materials (PCM) has become more important than ever. Unlike traditional cooling methods that depend heavily on ice or dry ice, PCM technology ensures precise temperature control for extended durations. This not only protects the integrity of products but also reduces energy consumption and operating costs. What is a Phase Change Material (PCM)? A Phase Change Material is a substance that absorbs and releases heat as it changes its state, usually from solid to liquid and back. This thermal storage capability helps maintain a consistent temperature inside insulated packaging or storage systems. When used in cold chain logistics , PCM acts as a thermal bat...

  In India’s intense heat — whether it’s the blistering summers of Rajasthan or the humid conditions of Mumbai — managing temperature isn’t just a matter of comfort; it’s a matter of survival, especially in industries like healthcare, logistics, and food supply. One of the most revolutionary solutions rising quietly in the background is Phase Change Material , or simply PCM . If you've never heard of it, you're not alone. But chances are, this material is already silently working behind the scenes in a cooling vest, vaccine transport box, or a cold chain container. What is Phase Change Material (PCM)? A Phase Change Material (PCM) is a substance that absorbs and releases heat when it changes its state — typically from solid to liquid and vice versa. Think of how ice melts at 0°C — while it melts, it absorbs heat. Similarly, PCM is engineered to melt and freeze at specific temperatures , like 5°C, 22°C, or even -20°C, depending on the application. Where is PCM Used in In...
