Temperature mapping Services

If you need temperature mapping for a controlled temperature unit (fridge/ freezer/ incubator etc.) area, storage unit, or transport application, contact Calibrio and we’ll help you scope the right approach.

Temperature mapping is the process of measuring temperature distribution across a controlled space to confirm it consistently stays within required limits. It helps you identify hot and cold spots, verify performance, and demonstrate compliance during audits.

At Calibrio, we provide professional temperature mapping services for storage, manufacturing, transport, and laboratory environments — delivering clear results and practical recommendations.

 Practical mapping tailored to your environment 

• Clear reporting designed for audit readiness 
• Experienced calibration specialists 
• Advice you can apply immediately — not just a data dump 
• UK support and responsive scheduling

 Temperature mapping can be carried out across most temperature-controlled areas, including:

• Warehouses and distribution spaces 
• Cold rooms and walk-in fridges 
• Medical fridges and vaccine storage 
• Freezers (including low-temperature applications) 
• Incubators and laboratory chambers 
• Manufacturing / processing zones 
• Transport vehicles and trailers
   

If you’re unsure whether your environment requires mapping, we’re happy to advise.

 Most mapping is performed:

• When installing new equipment or a new facility 
• After relocation or layout changes 
• Following repairs, maintenance, or airflow changes 
• When products/process requirements change 
• If monitoring identifies unexplained excursions 
• As part of routine requalification (often annually, or seasonal)
   

Some customers map in summer and winter to demonstrate stability year-round.

To prove that the environment remains within required limits throughout the full space — not just at a single display point — and to identify any temperature variation that could impact product quality or compliance.

Study durations vary depending on the environment and standard you follow, but many studies run from 24 hours to 7 days.

We determine the sensor quantity and placement based on:

• Size and layout 
• Airflow patterns 
• Racking or load arrangement 
• Door locations and usage 
• Risk profile and required confidence level
   

It depends on your quality system and regulatory expectations. We can map:

• Empty 
• Loaded 
• Or perform both to compare performance
   

If hot/cold spots or instability are identified, we can help you interpret the results and recommend improvements such as:

• Airflow adjustments 
• Equipment positioning changes 
• Racking/layout changes 
• Monitoring sensor relocation 
• Operational changes (e.g. door use)
   

Yes — mapping validates the space, but continuous monitoring is used to maintain control and detect excursions in day-to-day operation.

A common approach is annually, or whenever significant changes occur. Some organisations also map seasonally to demonstrate performance in different ambient conditions.
