Swiss WorldCargo has signed a global partnership agreement with award-winning company va-Q-tec, a leader in passive closed cold chain container solutions within a global service network.

The additional offering of va-Q-tec’s advanced passive solution containers within its portfolio will support pharmaceutical manufacturers and forwarders to ship their temperature sensitive goods within the global network of Swiss WorldCargo through direct airline rentals, cost-efficiently and with the highest quality standards, the carrier said.

Commenting on the deal, Dominic Hyde, managing director va-Q-tec Limited, said: “va-Q-tec has been requested by pharma customers to establish a partnership with Swiss WorldCargo to enable direct container rentals. Many pharma shippers and forwarders see the cargo division of SWISS as a strategic partner for reliably transporting pharmaceuticals and they want the simplicity of ordering the va-Q-tainer containers through the airline directly.”

“With va-Q-tec’s cutting edge containers we welcome the opportunity to offer a more complete, value-added passive solution set to our pharma & healthcare client base worldwide,” remarked Ashwin Bhat, head of cargo at SWISS.

Va-Q-tec offers a unique advanced passive solution portfolio with five hard shell container sizes, taking up to two pallets inside, and  temperatures ranges from -70°C to +25°C. Within the ‘Load & Go’ rental concept, va-Q-tec containers reach their customers fully temperature preconditioned and ready to be loaded for one way rental shipments over five days or more on global lanes.
