American Journal of Transportation: Aeropowder launches feather-based brand “PluumoPlus” for thermal packaging in U.S.

Demand for temperature-controlled healthcare logistics in the U.S. is growing fast, with specialty medicines accounting for more than half of U.S. medicine spending, according to the IQVIA Institute. U.S. pharmacies dispensed an estimated $293 billion of specialty drugs in 2025, up nearly 10% on 2024, according to the Drug Channels Institute. Many of these therapies ship to patients’ homes or clinics, so shippers face rising freight costs and pressure to cut plastic waste.
