INa World Post-PROODIMIC, the cold-lower series responsible for transporting sensitive goods such as vaccines and biology-clearly recognized as a decisive element in global health infrastructure. As the pharmaceutical scene develops, the infrastructure it supports must also be. Cell treatments and genes, very specialized treatments, and complex supply chains require the next generation.
“At the present time, we are in the process of identifying the next generation container. The current design has been present for more than 15 years-and is still a good performance,” said Leroy Galway, UK and Ireland’s business development director in Docas. But to go forward, we merge all the factors I mentioned: Co₂ Impact, commercial feasibility, operational efficiency and specific needs of new drug techniques.
“Everyone looks at them from their angle. Pharmaceutical companies rethink their internal packages. Chaton is looking for more efficient ways to move shipping. We collect visions from each of them – Pharma, companies, airlines, use that intelligence to form the future of our products. Our goal is to build prepared containers, commercially compete, and benefit from the next 25th position.”
Find a sustainable solution
With the post-11-19 period, which sparked a turning point for the cold chain, the sustainability has moved from looking at the background to the leading priority.
“The sustainability was always on the radar, but it is now in the forefront and the center,” Galloway expressed. “Every meeting we have with pharmaceutical companies, sustainability is the main topic.
Interestingly, shipping trading is now acting like a consultant of the cold chain of pharmaceutical companies, and thus the conversation about sustainability has become very important for them.
“Today, whether we are talking to guidance or a pharmaceutical company, the highest anxiety is sustainability.”
For more than 15 years, the Dokasch fleet consisted mainly of two models of active containers: RKN and the largest RAP.
Although both serve vital roles, rap has become the main solution to commercial air charges. Its design provides great environmental advantages on negative containers, especially in terms of space efficiency and weight.
“On a standard PMC platform, you can put four negative containers, each of which has 1 euro platform – but you can put five euros platforms “This is an immediate decrease of 25 percent in the carbon fingerprint for this trip sector,” Gallowe said in Rabna.
The logical basis behind this focus is rooted in the numbers. The vast majority of carbon emissions occur in the container in the air conditions during the same trip. By increasing the pallet area to a minimum and reducing weight, the rap container reduces fuel consumption and associated emissions.
“Space and weight efficiency leads to a 40 percent decrease in CO₂ “The emissions during the air transport. This is why our rap music is ideal for shipments of three or more platforms. RKN, heavier, is less logical for smaller charges, and this is true throughout the industry,” Galway said.
Innovation amid the demands
Both technological innovation and customer expectations constitute the future of the wonderful chain solutions.
“From the perspective of an active container, the market is very mature, so there is a limited room for dramatic change,” Galloway noted. “But with negative solutions, there is greater flexibility. We see a direction towards simplifying some high-end options-which reduces the components of insulation or cooler to simplify production and reduce effect.”
While this shift indicates a greater amount of adaptation to the negative container space, Galloway stressed the need for a more integrated approach throughout the industry. He said: “Whether we are talking active or negative, the ultimate goal is the same-to create effective, reliable and ready solutions in the future.” “We do not see it active for negativity. The entire industry must be considered completely.”
Speaking from Logipharma, Galloway declared: “Our goal is to show the presence, to prove that we are participating and listening. It also relates to learning – this is the way the market is heading, and what customers who have priority are. This industry is developing year after year. Things that we thought were impossible before 2020 now routine.”
