Reliable temperature stability is critical when transporting sensitive materials across both the medical industry—including vaccines, blood specimens and human organs. The integrity and safety of these materials cannot be compromised at any stage of transit.
To address this need, we developed a next-generation, Patent Pending disposable cold box engineered to support compliant, secure, and stable cold-chain transport across a wide range of applications.
Our system utilizes Phase Change Material (PCM) refrigeration (sold separately) to deliver consistent thermal performance from point of origin to final delivery—ensuring reliable protection throughout the entire transport cycle without the need for electronics or active cooling systems.
Maintaining thermal stability during transit should not add operational complexity. The MaxiThermal Disposable Cold Box provides a dependable, single-use solution engineered for consistent thermal performance in medical logistics, allowing teams to focus on outcomes—not packaging management.
Designed to work with Phase Change Material (PCM) refrigeration (sold separately), MaxiThermal delivers reliable temperature buffering without electronics or active systems.
Simple, reliable, and operationally efficient—MaxiThermal advances the standard of protection for temperature-sensitive materials across healthcare supply chains.
vaccines, blood and human organs
Each day, healthcare industry professionals transport products that require strict thermal stability—vaccines for distribution, diagnostic samples for analysis, time-sensitive organs for surgical procedures moving through the supply chain.
The MaxiThermal cold box supports these critical operations with a lightweight, user-friendly, and disposable design that delivers reliable thermal performance without electronics or continuous monitoring. Utilizing Phase Change Material (PCM) refrigeration (sold separately), it enables teams to pack, seal, and deploy with confidence in the medical logistics environments.
Jon Nakagawa brings more than 30 years of innovation, executive leadership, and financial expertise to his role as an advisor to Krea Business Advisory Services.
He is the CEO of MAxi Thermal, holds five patents in temperature and cold box sciences, and has worked with nearly every major semiconductor company, including Intel, Hitachi, TSMC, and Apple, whose teams have adopted and applied his solutions. Earlier, Jon developed the world’s first -80°C dry ice data logger for Hitachi Chemical, a breakthrough that has supported both semiconductor logistics and the global distribution of life-saving medical supplies. He later founded Marathon Products Inc., a data logger company, which he expanded into global markets for more than 30 years before successfully exiting.
Beyond his technical leadership, Jon is also a CPA with more than 25 years of experience, combining innovation with financial discipline. He has been active in structuring tax-free exchanges for both corporations and real estate, further strengthening his role in M&A strategy and execution.
