I really love it when I'm reviewing any project that has anything to do with pharmaceuticals. because it is basically my life.
Smartcontainers have an incredible role to play as far as shipping of pharmaceutical goods are concerned, and I'll try to bring that down and also all those figures for you today.
Apart from food transport, the second biggest industry for temperature-sensitive shipping is pharmaceuticals. because a large amount of drugs and especially vaccines need the most intricate of temperature regulations. especially when they are being shipped across different parts of the world.
As it exposes them to changing weather and temperature conditions. the market for pharma logistics today is worth 1.1 trillion dollars and with the continuous advancement that we continue make in drug research and production, that figure my double itself in the next two years.
Currently, about 26% of today's market for pharma logistics are cold chain related. this means drugs that need continuous and sustained low temperatures throughout the time that they are being transported, and even when they are being stored.
This of course includes vaccines.& with the number of cold chain related drugs growing at an even faster pace, the technologies that are developed by companies like smart containers become even more necessary.
A major application of smart containers, is in the large scale shipping of vaccines to impoverished regions of the world. today WHO estimates that about 40% of vaccines degrade due to failure of the temperature ranges to be maintained, causing a monumental loss of 2.5 billion dollars for pharma companies annually.
I myself have been a victim of such, but I've personally seen the 1500c that was designed by smart containers and I must say I was impressed by its technologies. it was extremely light and was fully equipped with state-of-the-art IOT sensor technology.
I personally haven't seen the sky cell one, but from what I've heard about it. it's a revolution in pharmaceutical logistics, that escapes from just being left out at the seaports and steps right down into your homes.
This will not only save huge amount of money, but will save a multitude of lives. with smart containers technologies, the estimated figures of degraded vaccines by WHO is bound to reduce. and this would also save a lot of lives, by ensuring that the best, highest quality vaccines go to those who need them the most. For example in epidemics in developing countries.
I am doing this review because smart containers currently has an ico going on. which will help it to acquire more funds, which will be used to expand its operation lines. and aid further research into it alreday impressive technologies.
skycell is a brand that is widely known to us in pharmaceuticals. as it is a very major player in pharmaceuticals logistics and shipping and I have been a customer of it on more than one of occasion.
Smart containers continues to produce technologies that continues to set the bar higher for other companies in pharmaceutical logistics. and that's good news for everyone in the pharmaceutical world today.
I've already participated in the crowdsale but you are not late because the doors are still open. you may purchase the SMARC or LOGI token. I took both. expectedly.
