Thermogard was founded in New Zealand in the late 1990s as a cold chain solution for fresh seafood exporters. The first order was simple: one pallet of ice packs, made entirely by hand.
Our story
From those early beginnings, Thermogard grew through practical problem solving, service excellence, and continuous innovation. What started as a solution to solve an issue in the seafood industry,has developed into into what Thermogard is today. A recognized, world-leading temperature-controlled packaging specialist; combining design, qualification, manufacturing, and supply-chain deployment at a global scale.
Thermogard’s growth has always been driven by customer requirements. The business was built by listening closely to what customers needed, understanding the realities of their supply chains, and developing packaging solutions that helped protect temperature sensitive products in transit.
That same approach continues today through Thermogard’s Listen. Design. Deliver. methodology.
Innovation through every stage
Thermogard has quickly evolved. From hand made gel packs, the business scaled rapidly through listening to our customers, and innovating cold chain solutions that solved real world challenges. As demand expanded globally, so did manufacturing and product capabilities, to become the global leader that Thermogard is today. The business continues to invest in design, validation, manufacturing and supply chain, so customers can continue to apply innovative solutions to cold chain challenges at a global scale.
Thermogard supports global cold chain supply through regional teams, manufacturing capability and supply partnerships across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. This gives customers local support backed by wider international production, technical expertise and supply continuity.
