Cold Chain Technologies Opens New HQ

Cold Chain Technologies (CCT), a provider of temperature-controlled packaging solutions for the life science supply chain, has relocated its corporate headquarters to Franklin, MA. The expanded facility houses a manufacturing operation supported by thermal package engineering and an R&D center. The company’s customer service and multiple support teams are also located in Franklin. 
 
The company was founded 50 years ago and was originally a regional provider of insulated shipping containers and freezer bricks to the food and seafood industry. In 2002, FDC Packaging was renamed Cold Chain Technologies and established a cGMP compliant, ISTA certified, and ISO maintained facility that has evolved into a center for thermal design and qualification testing. Later in the decade, additional manufacturing facilities were opened in Nashville, TN, Reno, NV and in Europe. 
 
CCT currently designs, qualifies, and manufactures a portfolio of off-the-shelf and customized packaging solutions across a wide range of sizes, multiple temperature ranges and durations. Its products are used in many segments of the life sciences, including commercial manufacturing, clinical trials, specialty pharmacy compliance and direct-to-patient shipments. 
 
Larry Gordon of CCR said, "This is quite a year for CCT. We are thrilled to be celebrating both our 50th anniversary and opening of the Franklin, MA facility. Our growth and leadership position within the industry is due to the ongoing dedication and efforts of our employees. Their desire to excel, to continually learn, and to provide extraordinary service to our customers allows us to partner closely with the world’s leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies in the delivery of life-saving medicines. CCT is well poised to continue to provide our clients with ever-smarter solutions."
