Do you want to transport a temperature-sensitive product? We offer a broad product portfolio of thermal packaging and container solutions for global active pharmaceutical, biotech and logistic companies. As a pioneer in that field for more since 2001 our top priority is to protect our clients’ products while minimizing costs. Our superior high-performance packaging is achieved through award-winning and space-saving technology with the application of VIPs (vacuum insulation panels) and PCM (phase change materials).

Success in clinical studies is important for pharmaceutical companies’ modern research. However, new treatment options for patients whose recovery may depend on this success is even more crucial. There are many risks to overcome, including a safe, reliable and unbroken TempChain. Thermal packaging products from va-Q-tec for shipping investigational medicinal products (IMPs) and clinical samples were developed to minimize precisely these risk. The products have proven successful in practical application with regard to their thermal and mechanical sturdiness.

More and more pharmaceutical and biotech products are temperature-sensitive and need an unbroken temperature controlled supply chain. Due to tighter GDP regulations, this has to be monitored and verified for all temperature ranges. va-Q-tec’s product portfolio offers a large selection from small boxes to large containers. Our products distinguish through an excellent price-performance ratio, low operating costs and high quality standards. They are easy to handle and available with our attractive rental model.

The “last mile”, until the product reaches the patient, is characterized by short transport times and high frequency. va-Q-tec offers a large variety of packaging solutions that can keep performance long enough for unpredictable events to occur. Our products are GDP compliant and follow our claim: va-Q-tec – We solve thermal challenges.

In addition to our standard portfolio, we also develop individual packaging solutions specifically for your requirements.

With a large product portfolio of packaging for temperature controlled transportation and on in-house production, va-Q-tec is able to meet any requirements physically possible. Our experienced engineering team manages complex developments and supports the implementation into the customers’ processes.

Application Examples for Healthcare & Logistics

ASML

ASML

ASML is one of the world’s leading suppliers to the semiconductor industry and manufactures machines that are used to produce integrated circuits or microchips. Parts of these machines are highly temperature-sensitive. For this reason, they require temperature-controlled transportation as a part of globalized sourcing and production supply chain. Each machine is about the size of a bus and can require multiple Boeing 747s for delivery in parts. Up until 2018, ASML has been using an active solution for temperature-controlled air freight transportation, but due to high expenses and temperature deviations they were searching for a new service provider.

Covid-19 Impfstoff-Distribution

Distribution of Covid-19 vaccines

The worldwide distribution of the Corona vaccine is considered a mammoth logistical task. Another big challenge lies in the last mile – to vaccination centers and doctors’ offices. Follow the exciting insights into two lighthouse projects in the two videos below: In collaboration with the government of Uruguay, va-Q-tec’s innovative boxes and services support vaccine delivery there – even in remote regions. va-Q-tec also makes a major contribution to the distribution of vaccines in Germany. Mobile vaccination teams are supplied with vaccine with the help of the innovative boxes and services.

va-Q-tec TempChain Network worldwide

Managing a fleet of containers or boxes and the delivery of single and multi-use packaging materials can be a challenge. Storing and assembling the materials takes time and space, both of which are valuable resources. Self-assembly or systems with complicated handling create potential risk for deviations and often require extensive operating training.
