Diplomat

Diplomat Pharmacy, provider of specialty pharmacy and infusion services, is now shipping temperature-sensitive medication in ClimaCell coolers from TemperPack. ClimaCell coolers are fully recyclable at curbside and insulated with renewable materials that can be recycled wherever plastic bags are accepted. Diplomat previously used expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam coolers.

According to TemperPack, ClimaCell coolers require 94% less energy to manufacture compared to EPS foam— meaning reduced carbon emissions. By moving away from EPS foam, Diplomat Pharmacy will divert more than five tons of plastic from landfills every week. The move reflects Diplomat’s commitment to protecting the environment while ensuring patient safety.

Brian Griffin, chairman and chief executive officer, TemperPack said, “Switching to ClimaCell not only reduces Diplomat’s carbon footprint; it’s also a reflection of our steadfast commitment to patients. It’s difficult to dispose of EPS foam responsibly, and our patients have already expressed their excitement about reducing the amount of plastic heading to landfills. This new packaging allows us to be better stewards of the environment while keeping specialty medications at a stable temperature.”

ClimaCell coolers meet international safe transit association standards— meaning they will keep medication at a safe temperature even in extreme weather conditions.

TemperPack cofounder James McGoff said, “Our healthcare system relies on petroleum-based plastics, especially EPS foam. Patients don’t think this is sustainable, and neither
do we. ClimaCell is the first in a series of high-tech, plant-based technologies that will empower companies like Diplomat to continue improving human health without compromising environmental health. We are honored and excited to support such an  innovative company.”
