MARKHAM, ONTARIO, CANADA -???, 2015 – Infitrak, a leading provider of cold chain
compliance, packaging and monitoring solutions, announced today that it has

known in the automotive component industry as a leader in molded polyurethane and bead
foam solutions that include seat cushions and frames, head restraints, arm
rests, headliners, acoustic insulators, cargo systems and safety components.
By applying this technology
toinsulated packaging, the companies have been able to design a line of energy
efficient insulated products, called TempTrust, that are lighter and more effective than any
other packaging product on the market today.
Through this agreement, Infitrak
will have exclusive rights to offer Woodbridge’sbeaded foam productsto logistics
customers across North America. It also provides Infitrak with production, technical
and engineering support to enhance Infitrak's current cold chain packaging

value the Infitrak team has brought to our product line through their cold
chain expertise, said Darcy Nettleton,Packaging Sales Manager, The Woodbridge
Group. “Infitrak’s expertise in compliance,process, and shipping and storage
conditions in specific temperature regulated markets, has enabled us to jointly
develop game-changing applications for EPP and EPS technologies. The result has
been a product that is lighter to transport and more cost effective for manufacturers
and patients. Our customers will benefit from Infitrak’s qualified offerings
and provide a true one stop shop for all of their shipping requirements.”
“Experience, rapid prototyping, and industry-leading
production capabilities. This is exactly what we were looking for when we
envisioned the TempTrust product line,” said Jean Bedard, President at
Infitrak, Inc. “Woodbridge has brought all of those capabilities and more to
us. The result is the ability to design qualified packaging that surpasses
industry standards and can meet the supply needs of any size customer. This agreement
now allows us the exclusive rights to support customers across North America
and have access to the full breadth of production capabilities.”
TempTrust packaging solutions, by Infitrak, are lighter, have
longer temperature duration specifications and can sustain much colder or hotter
temperatures than current offerings, while keeping temperatures consistent and
products safe. The complete solution includes corrugate, foam, refrigerants,
vacuum panels and qualification documents. Each qualified solution is not only
tested using the latest standards, but also has been tested against thousands
of data points acquired through over ten years of temperature profiling data.
