Last Mile Pharma

The transport of temperature-sensitive medications poses major challenges for the pharmaceutical sector. va-Q-tec offers innovative thermal packaging that ensures consistent temperature control over extended periods of time. Whether during long-distance shipments or last-mile delivery, the state-of-the-art insulation solutions ensure that pharmaceutical products reach their destination safely and in optimal condition. With sustainable and efficient packaging solutions, va-Q-tec is setting new standards for the pharmaceutical industry.

Technological
innovations in pharma logistics

At the core of va-Q-tec’s technology are vacuum insulation panels (VIPs), which offer up to ten times better insulation performance than conventional materials such as polystyrene or mineral wool. By removing the air from within the panels, heat transfer is almost entirely eliminated, enabling outstanding thermal insulation.

Compared to traditional insulating materials, VIPs are particularly space-saving, durable, and sustainable. They provide consistently high performance over many years and can be specifically optimised for various applications — especially those involving critical temperature requirements — ensuring compliance with Good Distribution Practice (GDP) guidelines.

Insulation solutions for temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical
products

va-Q-tec’s thermal packaging systems ensure the safe transport of temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical products by maintaining a constant temperature over extended periods. They are based on vacuum insulation panels (VIPs), which deliver exceptional insulation performance with minimal material thickness.

The cooling and heating elements use phase change materials (PCMs) to store and release thermal energy during the melting and freezing process. These elements make it possible to precisely control and maintain the required temperature inside the packaging—an essential feature for transporting medications with strict temperature requirements.
