Dayton, Ohio USA, - AcuTemp, a manufacturer of high performance insulation and temperature sensitive packaging technology, has seen increased demand for its mobile refrigerator/freezer units.  Not only have thousands of units been deployed by the DoD for the war effort, but demand has been on the rise by state and local municipalities for their disaster preparedness initiatives.  The AcuTemp AX27L and the AX56L units are designed to operate as either a refrigerator or a freezer for storing and transporting temperature-sensitive blood, vaccines or other medical supplies.  Because the units can operate on AC or battery power, they are particularly useful for storing supplies 24/7 when operating on AC, or they can be easily switched to battery power in the event of a power outage.  Each unit is also equipped with carrying handles for quickly transporting medical supplies to remote and offsite locations should a disaster or emergency situation demand medical response.  “The AcuTemp AX27L and AX56L units have been utilized not only in the harshest military environments, but they are also being utilized by local government agencies, as well as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to meet storage and logistic needs,” states Vince Reidy, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for AcuTemp.  “Recent news of vaccines being ruined due to faulty temperature storage practices makes these units even more attractive, since they are equipped with alarm systems and datalogging features that track temperature integrity within the unit.” AcuTemp’s most recent innovation is the FAA-certified AcuTemp AX2100L thermal pallet shipper.  This refrigerated unit is capable of operating on either AC or battery power and handles pallet-sized loads up to 48” high.  For more information on AcuTemp products, visit www.acutemp.com.
