Division Overview

About this division

This division provides complete temperature monitoring systems for cold chain–dependent industries, integrating best-fit data logging and monitoring technology — including established platforms such as ELPRO — matched to each client's regulatory and operational requirements.

We work exclusively with the pharmaceutical and food sectors, where a single excursion outside a validated range can mean a lost batch, a failed audit, or a recalled product. Our role goes beyond selling hardware: we specify, install, validate, and support full monitoring systems.

Every engagement is treated as one accountable scope of work. Clients deal with a single team from initial system design through to ongoing calibration and support.

How We Work

From assessment to ongoing support

Every full-system engagement follows the same disciplined sequence, so nothing is skipped and every step is documented for later reference.

01

Assess

Review of facilities, storage points, and existing monitoring gaps against regulatory requirements.

02

Design

System specification: logger placement, network coverage, alarm thresholds, and reporting structure.

03

Install

Physical deployment of the selected data logging hardware and monitoring software across the agreed sites.

04

Validate

Thermal mapping and qualification testing, with documentation prepared for IQ/OQ/PQ records.

05

Support

Scheduled calibration, maintenance, and responsive service to keep the system audit-ready.

A typical full-system install: wireless or 4G/5G real-time loggers on each monitored point, feeding a router and cloud server, with live data reaching your team on desktop or mobile.

Hardware & Software

Real-time data loggers & cloud monitoring systems

A vendor-agnostic range of monitoring hardware and software, matched to the specific storage, transport, or facility conditions each client needs to monitor.

HARDWARE

4G/5G Real-Time Loggers

Cellular-connected loggers that transmit continuously straight to the cloud — no local gateway required.

HARDWARE

Wireless Data Loggers

Battery-powered temperature and humidity loggers for cold rooms, warehouses, and point-of-use storage.

HARDWARE

Networked Sensor Systems

Fixed sensor networks for facilities that need continuous, centralized coverage across multiple zones.

HARDWARE

In-Transit & Cold Chain Loggers

Compact loggers for shipments and vehicles, capturing temperature history across the full journey.

SOFTWARE

Cloud Monitoring Software

Live dashboards, configurable alarm thresholds, and automated escalation for immediate visibility.

SOFTWARE

Reporting & Audit Trail

Electronic records structured to support 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, ready for inspection.

VALIDATION

Temperature Mapping

Thermal mapping studies to identify hot and cold spots, supporting IQ/OQ/PQ documentation.

SERVICE

Calibration Services

Scheduled calibration against traceable standards, with certificates supplied for every device.

SERVICE

Preventive Maintenance

Routine servicing of loggers, sensors, and network equipment to catch degradation early.

DEPLOYMENT

Full System Installation

End-to-end deployment — from sensor placement and wiring to alarm escalation and reporting.

SERVICE

Ongoing Technical Support

A responsive point of contact for troubleshooting and system expansion.

VALIDATION

IQ/OQ/PQ Documentation

Qualification records delivered in a format that plugs directly into your regulatory submission.

Two Sectors, One Standard

Pharmaceuticals & food

Different regulators, the same underlying problem: temperature excursions that go undetected become financial losses, safety risks, or compliance failures.

SECTOR 01

Pharmaceutical

  • Cold room & warehouse monitoring
  • Vaccine & biologic storage
  • GDP-aligned distribution monitoring
  • 21 CFR Part 11 electronic records
SECTOR 02

Food & Beverage

  • Cold storage & distribution centers
  • Processing & production facilities
  • In-transit & delivery monitoring
  • HACCP-aligned documentation
Standards We Build To

Certifications & compliance

Systems and processes built to support the regulatory frameworks our clients are audited against.

21 CFR PART 11

Electronic Records

Audit-trailed, electronically signed monitoring data suitable for regulated environments.

GDP / GMP

Distribution & Manufacturing Practice

Monitoring and documentation aligned with Good Distribution and Manufacturing Practice requirements.

ISO CALIBRATION

Traceable Accuracy

Loggers calibrated against traceable standards, with certificates supplied for audit purposes.

Client Trust

Trusted by leading pharma & food brands

Hands-on delivery across a broad base of pharmaceutical and food organizations, rather than a single manufacturer's product line.
