What is the POLARCYL™ shipping system?
POLARCYL is a modular temperature-controlled shipping system made by POLARCYL LLC. A vacuum-insulated 304 stainless-steel housing holds an interchangeable phase-change-material (PCM) cylinder matched to the payload. Every cylinder shares the same outer size, so one housing serves vial and pen formats. After delivery the cylinder is removed and the housing can be reused as drinkware.
