Color change indicators for monitoring low and room temperatures are essential testing and control tools in the supply chains of food, medical, and cosmetics logistics. Specifically tailored to these application areas are the self-adhesive Chillcheckers in Kager's measurement point range. They are available for various threshold values and can be directly applied to products and packaging.

What has recently come into public awareness in the context of the current vaccine debate has always been a top priority for logistics experts in the medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries: the precise compliance and traceable monitoring of strictly defined temperatures in the transport and supply chains of medicines and food. Many renowned distributors and logistics service providers now rely on the measurement points of the Chillchecker type from the portfolio of the trading and consulting company Kager. Because these small indicators offer a decisive advantage: they can be directly affixed to products, packaging, and load carriers during manufacturing or at the latest during shipping, and then accompany the goods as in-situ testing tools until delivery to the recipient.

Stored too warm? And for how long?

Kager offers the Chillchecker measurement labels in eight finely graduated variants for temperature thresholds from -17°C to +20°C. Depending on the version, they can be used for frozen and deep-frozen products, low-temperature goods, or room temperature items. Overall, the Chillchecker range covers a wide spectrum of food, cosmetics, medicines, and reagents.

The achievement and exceeding of the respective temperature thresholds are visualized by the Chillcheckers from Kager through a clearly recognizable coloring change from white to blue-violet. The size of the blue area also indicates how the threshold was affected during transport: if it is small and point-shaped, it indicates a short-term exceedance; if the blue coloring extends across the entire area, it signals a long-term threshold breach. Inspectors and quality assurance personnel can thus see at a glance whether the permissible temperature of the delivered medicines, cosmetics, or food was exceeded during transport or handling.

Activation by fingertip

The Chillcheckers from Kager have a diameter of 32 mm and are scaled in degrees Celsius. Their measurement accuracy is ± 1.0°C. They are activated by light finger pressure. On a large scale, they are also used in export and airport logistics — especially when shipping goods to warmer regions of the world. In many places, they are also useful as evidence in warranty management and product liability.
