Hyderabad: Hyderabad-based Rockwell Industries, a commercial cold chain appliance manufacturer, entered into a strategic partnership with Dr Reddy’s Laboratories, to provide its WHO PQS (World Health Organisation – Performance, Quality and Safety) certified Covid-19 vaccine freezers to enable storage of Sputnik V vaccine across India.

On May 14, Dr Reddy’s announced a limited pilot soft launch of the Sputnik V vaccine in India, ahead of the commercial launch later in June. The Covid-19 vaccines are temperature sensitive, hence require the precise temperature to maintain its potency.

Sputnik V vaccine made available in India through Dr Reddy’s requires a temperature range of minus -18 degrees Celsius, to keep the vaccine stable and potent. Rockwell’s freezer can handle various harsh usage conditions in rural locations too and maintain desired temperature range, thus breaking the vaccine cold chain hurdle.

Ashok Gupta, MD, Rockwell Industries, said, “Our technology ensures that Sputnik V’s storage management at vaccine centres meets the stringent refrigeration standards set forth by Sputnik V manufacturers.” In addition, Rockwell will provide end-to-end logistics and after sales service support for the vaccine freezers across India.

“Rockwell is working closely with Dr Reddy’s to develop and provide wireless internet of things (IoT) based controllers and data loggers which can give access to real-time data of temperature and performance for the vaccine freezers assuring the vaccine storage conditions in each location across the country,” said Prateek Gupta, director, Rockwell Industries.

Rockwell said, many hospitals such as AIG Hospitals, Apollo, Omega and Care Hospitals are already using the company’s vaccine freezers for storage and many more hospitals and institutions are approaching.

“We have a capacity to manufacture about 1,000 machines per day. We are in the process of exporting our vaccine freezers to various developed countries including an initial pilot deal with Japan,” Gupta added.
