Tertiary Distribution Solutions
Cold Shipping Solutions for Tertiary Distribution
Innovative solutions for multi-use, multi-deliveries and variable quantities optimized for your needs.
Tertiary distribution involves smaller deliveries and shipping to multiple points. The probability of maintaining the complete cold chain decreases in tertiary deliveries. Tessol’s proprietary solutions uses active and passive PCM (Phase Change Material) to ensure reliable temperature maintenance.
Benefits
We offer active or passive cooling solutions depending on the nature of use and requirement of the customer. They can be either multi-compartment solutions on regular containers based on our active solution – PlugNChill or part compartment solutions which are based on our passive solution – SWAP.
Reliable temperature maintenance
Multi compartmentalization
Combination of frozen, chilled and fresh products
Reduced operating costs
Multiple Compartment Units
Tessol’s tertiary distribution units can be built in combination of chilled, frozen and ambient with different compartment ratios. TESSOL can also build compartments to enable much larger number of openings and deliveries – something that cannot be done in a conventional unit.
How does it work?
A Charger which is mounted on container contains a compressor. The compressor runs on electricity which charges the PCM (Phase Change Material- a type of chemical which cools the vehicle down) filled in heat exchanger plates. Once the compressor enables PCM to arrive at a desired temperature, the desired temperature gets maintained in the vehicle for prolonged period of time ( 10 to 12 hours, depending upon the number of drops). Since there can be more than one compartment depending upon different temperature needs, suitable PUF based partitions are done to maintain the temperature in each compartment.
Part Compartment Vehicle
In the part compartment vehicles, a temperature-controlled chamber is installed inside a dry vehicle (no permanent fitting). The charged cartridges are then inserted before the vehicles leave for delivery. This helps to maintain temperatures for 8-10 hours with multiple deliveries.
