Pharmacy and Medical

There are several challenges associated with shipping medication, other pharmaceuticals, and medical devices. To guarantee quality, it is essential to transport the products and tools at the right temperature. Because medicines and medical devices can have quite different characteristics, the ideal transport conditions differ per situation. We are happy to help you find the optimal packaging products for conditioned transport.

Medication transport: the GDP guidelines

Medication transport requires specific treatment. The effect of the medicines will be affected if they are stored and transported incorrectly.

Good Distribution Practices (GDP) guidelines have been drawn up for wholesalers and manufacturers of human medicines to guarantee medicine quality. The temperature of the shipment is of great importance here. In this article you can read how you can comply with the GDP guidelines.

Om de medicijn kwaliteit te garanderen zijn voor groothandelaren en fabrikanten van humane geneesmiddelen in Nederland de Goede Distributie Praktijken (GDP) richtsnoeren opgesteld. De temperatuur van de verzending is hierbij van groot belang. In dit artikel leest u hoe u aan de GDP-richtsnoeren kunt voldoen.

Customized conditioned shipments

There are several challenges associated with shipping medication, other pharmaceuticals and medical devices. To guarantee quality it is essential to transport the products and tools at the right temperature. Because medicines and medical devices can have quite different characteristics, the ideal transport conditions also differ per situation.

However, it is always important to ensure that the medicines and aids remain dry and that the temperature is stable. To collect any condensation from melting cooling elements, we recommend the use of absorption mats or No sweat gel packs. Good insulating packaging is important to guarantee a stable temperature. For example, you can think of an EPS box. These keep the products and aids at the right temperature during long transports.

At Coolpack we have a lot of experience with different transport situations. Whether you want to keep your goods cooled at 0 to 8 degrees or at another specific temperature range. We offer cooling and freezing solutions for temperatures down to -21 degrees. We can achieve this by using Phase Change Material.

You can also contact us for tailor-made solutions. Think, for example, of segmented gel packs to cool blood samples all around and gel packs in the dimensions you desire. Questions or more information? Feel free to contact us!

Whitepaper: This is how temperature-sensitive medical resources arrive at their destination in optimal condition

Medical devices are vital. They are used by doctors during the diagnosis, treatment and support of a disease or disability, RIVM explains. Some medical devices, such as human tissues and blood, must be stored and transported chilled or frozen. This means that harmful bacteria do not stand a chance and the aids remain usable for as long as possible. Learn more about:
