Smart solar-powered freight containers help ship drugs safely and securely
Local startup Swiss Airtainer SA teamed up with CSEM to develop smart, self-powered containers for shipping pharmaceutical drugs under temperature-controlled conditions. The containers, equipped with ultralight, custom-built solar panels developed by CSEM, keep medicines cold along the entire logistics chain, while full traceability prevents theft. The firm plans to introduce its first containers on the market by end-2022.
