English term or phrase: vaccine distribution cold chain
"As part of its work to improve vaccine delivery and logistics systems, PATH is helping to refine the vaccine distribution cold chain. PATH's cold chain activities include identifying cold chain weaknesses, finding ways to overcome cold chain problems, and identifying improved cold chain refrigeration systems. Affordable, easy to use refrigerators that can keep vaccines at safe temperatures within the infrastructure limitations of developing countries are an important tool in improving vaccine delivery."

Can anyone help with the translation of the name of this process, please?
I think I understand the what it is about (i.e., keeping vaccines at the right temperatures), the problem is the "cold chain" bit. "Cadeia de frio" ?
Thanks.
