Born from experience.Every degree of it.

Our team knows a single degree is the difference between compliant and compromised. That’s not a tagline to us — it’s what we’ve lived. TempAid was built by industry veterans, compliance specialists, and packaging engineers who’ve spent careers inside cold chain, learning exactly what’s at stake when packaging falls short. That experience drives.

Our story

Five decades of temperature, measured.

Founded in 1975 and still privately owned, TempAid has spent five decades doing one thing: getting temperature-sensitive products where they need to go, intact and documented. Our expanding patent portfolio reflects not a collection of ideas, but hard-won answers to problems the cold chain still struggles to solve.

1975

Rapid Aid is founded in Mississauga

Rapid Aid is founded on a simple idea: temperature heals. From the start, hot- and cold-therapy products for human care demanded precision, material science, and manufacturing discipline. That foundation never left us.

2020

TempAid is founded

Rapid Aid’s 45 years of global manufacturing expertise meets cold chain knowledge, united by one focus: solving the compliance and logistics challenges of pharmaceutical and life science supply chains.

2021

We invest in proof

TempAid opens its ISTA Innovation testing centre, establishing the in-house capability to validate every product against the industry’s toughest standards. The SpeedyPac mailer becomes the first entry in a growing patent portfolio.

2022

Closer to the customer

TempAid expands across Canada and the US, adding 3PL warehouses and insulation manufacturing on the West Coast and in the Southeast, putting inventory and production closer to where customers need it most.

2023

Innovation without borders

TempAid opens a full testing facility in China with walk-in and reach-in chambers, accelerating global product development. The SteadyPac, a VIP cube with a patented tub and interlocking PCM, joins the portfolio.

2024

TempAid stands on its own

TempAid incorporates independently and opens a purpose-built manufacturing facility in Mississauga, Canada, dedicated exclusively to cold chain packaging. The lab expands with walk-in chambers, thermal modeling, and engineering capabilities that are now fully in-house and on-demand.

2025

Engineered for what’s next

TempAid launches fully automated PCM manufacturing in Canada, raising the bar on consistency and scale. The SteadyPac family grows with the addition of a cube and rectangle format, expanding the patent portfolio and solving more of the challenges pharmaceutical cold chain demands.

2026Today

A new look. The same obsession

TempAid launches a new brand, sharper, bolder, and built to match where we’re headed. Five decades of manufacturing expertise, six years of cold chain innovation, and a product portfolio that keeps growing. The best is still ahead.

R&D · ISTA Lab

Headquarters

Canada

Mississauga, Ontario is home to our headquarters, R&D labs, and ISTA-certified testing facility. It is where ideas are validated and standards are set. From here we reach customers across North America with confidence in every shipment.

Production

United States

Our US production network is built for responsiveness. When your business shifts, we shift with it. Domestic manufacturing means faster turnaround, tighter quality control, and a supply chain that stays close to your operations.

Production

China

Our Canadian-managed facility in Danyang, Jiangsu ships millions of units every month from a purpose-built operation that exceeds international standards. Years of supplier and logistics relationships mean we keep getting faster, more efficient, and more consistent.

Production

Vietnam

Our Hai Phong facility, opened in 2019, extends our Asian manufacturing capacity while giving cost-conscious customers a genuinely competitive option. Millions of units ship from here each month, held to the same production standards as every TempAid facility worldwide.

Cold chain packaging has always been more complex than it looks. I started TempAid because I believed the industry deserved better, better solutions, better validation, better support. Every decision we’ve made since has been driven by that same belief: that innovation and an uncompromising commitment to quality are the only ways to solve the real challenges our customers face. We understand supply chain. We understand what’s at stake. And we’re building TempAid to be the partner you can count on, every shipment.

How we operate

Principles,not adjectives.

01

Own every Step

Quality and on-time delivery are commitments we stand behind on every order.

02

Founder-led, privately held

We built it. We run it. We’re accountable for it. The founding team is still here, and so is our commitment to the customers who depend on us.

03

Sustainability by design

Sustainability starts at the drawing board. Every material, every component, every decision is made with waste reduction in mind.

04

Engineer for total cost

Optimal K-value, right thickness, less coolant, lower dimensional weight. We design for the freight bill and the audit.

05

Reduce before recycle

The most honest sustainability move is shipping less waste in the first place. Reusable PCM, recyclable films, no EPS.

06

Speak peer-to-peer

Our buyers know their field. Facts, specifics, and proof, never borrowed pathos or talking down.

The team

The signaturesbehind the file.

Our leadership brings decades of cold chain and manufacturing experience, and we’ve built a team around the same values, people who solve problems, hold themselves to a high standard, and care deeply about the work they put their name on.

No two shipments are alike.We design for that.

If your shipment needs something the standard product line doesn’t carry, we’ll build it with you. We start by learning your lane, your warehouse conditions, your payload, and your temperature window.

Our in-house lab runs the testing, and we design the pack out around what we find. You get the test data, the qualification documentation, and a pack out built for your specific shipment. You’ll know before you commit.
