For those who have previously had difficulty justifying the cost of implementing Timestrip's cold chain management, Timestrip can now provide a winning combination of precision, reliability and affordability.

Our current cold chain management offering includes TimestripPlus™ which accurately records the cumulative time spent above a temperature threshold. TimestripPlus will tell you exactly how long a product has spent above its recommended maximum temperature and is the first truly cost-effective indicator to do so.
