UTi's "LCL Pharma" service provides a cost-effective alternative
to airfreight for pharmaceuticals and other healthcare-related,
temperature-sensitive products. It allows clients to make Less than
Container Load (LCL) shipments without compromising quality
standards. The service was unveiled last month at the Port2Port
Cold Chain Forum in Tel Aviv, where it won the conference's
innovation award, and has launched following a successful pilot
phase.
Temperature-sensitive freight can be collected from across
Europe and delivered to UTi's GDP Certified Pharma Hub near
Brussels. The hub is configured to run 15°C to 25°C but also has
2°C to 8°C zones and a dedicated Pharma DG area, enabling
additional routes and services to be added in the future. Real-time
monitoring and control ensures that cool chain integrity is
maintained throughout its onward journey, even through customs.
Phil Abbate, UTi Global Vice President, Pharmaceutical &
Healthcare, said: "We are always looking at how
innovative supply chain solutions can deliver better results
for our clients and their patients. Through our 'pharma
network of excellence' we continue to push the envelope in seeking
out cost-effective alternatives that address the high cost of
shipping perishables. Our new LCL solution is just one example
of this, providing our healthcare clients with a seamless,
temperature-controlled service, thus allowing them to move goods
more efficiently by shipping smaller volumes on a regular
schedule."
