Temperature Controlled Products
- Swiss WorldCargo
   


yellow square SWISS °Celsius Active


For your temperature controlled supply chain

The market for pharmaceutical and healthcare products continues to grow and shows a sustainable and sound development. As speed to market is essential, the healthcare industry is increasingly relying on air cargo. The challenge for all the involved parties in the supply chain is to keep healthcare products within the required temperature range to ensure an unbroken cool chain and preserve the quality of the product.

Cool chain is a core element in the transportation of temperature controlled pharmaceutical products. To maintain the product temperature along the supply chain, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies are choosing an "active" temperature controlled container based on technologies like compressor cooling, electric heating or dry ice refrigeration (or a combination of both).


Our product - Your requirement is our mission

Swiss WorldCargo's Swiss °Celsius Active is a tailor-made, high-quality solution for your shipments that require seamless transportation in active temperature controlled containers.

For your temperature sensitive supply chain

The market for pharmaceutical and healthcare products continues to grow and shows a sustainable and sound development. As speed is essential to the market, the healthcare industry is increasingly relying on air cargo. The challenge for all the involved parties in the supply chain is to keep healthcare products within the required temperature range to ensure an unbroken cool chain and preserve the quality of the product.

Consequently, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies around the globe are investing more and more resources in sophisticated passive packaging solutions for their time and temperature sensitive shipments.

However, it is not all about packaging; these healthcare shipments rely on high quality standardised processes, speed and adequate storage, wherever possible, throughout the supply chain.

In addition to SWISS °Celsius Active, our product for shipments transported in active temperature controlled containers, we are completing our offer for temperature sensitive healthcare shipments with SWISS °Celsius Passive.

Our hub Your advantage

Our ground handler has officially been GDP certified according to the Swiss regulations in force. These regulations are in accordance with the requirements of the Guidelines on Good Distribution Practice of Medicinal Products of the European Commission.

Our infrastructure further provides temperature controlled ULD stacker that is dedicated for +15 °C to +25 °C shipments. The stacker also features a separate cool tunnel with ample space for ULD shipments that need to be kept between +2 °C and +8 °C. An exclusive area for loose "controlled room temperature" shipments as well as "refrigerated temperature" and "deep frozen" completes the infrastructure.

Short distances (mainly tunnel) between warehouse and aircraft position in combination with all-in-one operational and warehouse handling provide a fast, high quality process that limits exposure to outside conditions to a minimum. Swiss WorldCargo's hub control centre ensures a smooth, reliable and flexible handling of the shipment.
