Foam Fabricators Inc. and Polyfoam LLC, both ALTOR Solutions companies – are supporting the nationwide distribution of the COVID-19 vaccines. Utilizing several of their manufacturing locations, they have enacted a comprehensive plan to meet the demand for molded expanded polystyrene (EPS) shippers. The containers are proven solutions that provide the high quality temperature control required for vaccine storage and distribution, and are also lightweight, safe, low-cost and recyclable.
Both Foam Fabricators and Polyfoam have decades-long track records for successfully providing solutions to the pharmaceutical industry to allow for the safe transport of vaccines, medications, reagents and testing components. Both also previously supported the distribution of a nationwide vaccine program during the novel influenza A (H1N1) virus outbreak in 2009.
“We are incredibly proud to play such an important role in the overall vaccine effort,” stated Michael Hays, Vice President of Foam Fabricators. “Our team recognizes the importance of temperature-controlled packaging, and we know better than anyone that without the right solutions, the vaccine cannot safely get to where it needs to go. This is a huge project close to the hearts of many, and our decades of accumulated human and capital resources are being put to the test as we rise to the occasion.”
As part of the ALTOR Solutions group, both Foam Fabricators and Polyfoam are industry-leading designers and manufacturers of PIC products: Packaging, Insulation & Componentry. They provide custom and stock solutions. To see their line of stock insulated containers check our Thermal Packaging page.
