Cost-effective alternative to:
Dry Ice requires a shipper to handle using personal protective equipment (PPE), actively manage the inventory/sublimation-loss, and print and apply costly hazardous materials labels. They can also potentially face fines.
Gel packs offer cheap refrigerants but cost significant payload capacity. They also have the potential to leak.
Rigid plastic bottles are costly and have an initial high carbon footprint that reduces coolant capacity. They promise reusability but often don’t offer a return program.

ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks Properties
ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks are designed to maintain shape during freezing-thawing or transit and are used by companies throughout the world where reliability and efficiency are top priorities. ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks perform up to the cold chain industry standards and commonly exceed customers’ expectations for passive temperature-controlled solutions. At Temprecision International, our focus is on maintaining the consistent quality of our products while delivering innovative cold chain solutions to our customers.
ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks excel in maintaining consistent temperatures and outperform traditional gel packs and fluid-filled bottles.
During testing, each ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks undergo rigorous conditioning at -19˚C for 48 hours to ensure reliability. During our precise testing process, the ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks are vertically aligned in a controlled environment set at 25˚C with 50% humidity. We use advanced infrared imaging to monitor heat transfer, ensuring the highest standards of quality and performance.
Equipment: FLIR Camera, TEMPTALE Sensors
Results demonstrate the surface temperature of the ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks used in the product testing exhibited a more uniform temperature across the surface and held a more consistent temperature longer than the fluid-filled plastic bottle.

Phase Change Materials, known as PCM, are formulated to change phases at specific temperatures, providing cold chain management at just the right temperature to protect your payload and offer consistent cooling throughout the duration of shipping. Whether you require subzero, ambient, or control room temperatures, Temprecision International has the cold chain solution for you.
We offer a complete range of Phase Change Materials to meet any need and continually innovate new solutions to match our customers’ needs.
Subzero
- PCM-21
- PCM-10
Refrigerated
- PCM0
- PCM+5
Control Room Temperature
- PCM+18
- PCM+22
With 95% or greater absorption efficiency, ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks will not melt or lose fluid if compromised. Unlike alternative products, if the outside is compromised, the majority of the fluid (PCM) will be retained inside the ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks.
ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks can be customized to the exact size you need for your specific application without the cost of expensive tooling, allowing your customer to maximize the space available for their temperature-assured cargo.
While internal payload volume increases, exterior volume is held constant. This allows the users a decrease in corrugate or box purchases, and, at the same time, a decrease in logistic costs associated with shipping and maintaining the temperature ranges of that cargo.
Temprecision® Foam has been engineered to meet our customer’s strict absorption requirements and can absorb 95% to 99% of a fluid in a matter of seconds.
PCM-21, PCM-10, and PCM0 ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks are non-toxic, designed for use in food-grade applications, and are printed with a disclaimer for clear communication to consumers. Toll manufacturing and custom printing are also available.
Customizing ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks specific to your application allows you to maximize the internal cargo payload size.
The maximization of the internal cooling capacity and its associated volume with ThermaBrick® Refrigerant Bricks allows for maximum volume achieved for the temperature-assured cargo.
Internal payload volume increases, while exterior volume is held constant. This allows for a decrease in corrugate or box purchases, and, at the same time, a decrease in logistic costs associated with shipping and maintaining the temperature ranges of that cargo.
