Choose a Pharmaceutical Refrigerated Van from CoolKit

Pharmaceutical transportation always demands strict temperature control, which is why we provide specialised refrigerated van solutions to many fleets conducting pharmaceutical logistics operations. Whether you’re transporting vaccines, medications, or biologics, our temperature-controlled solutions are designed to meet the highest environmental and condition regulations relevant to the pharmaceutical industry.

Vehicles to Fulfil Cold Chain Requirements in Pharmaceutical Logistics

In temperature-controlled pharmaceutical logistics, ensuring that products remain within a precise temperature range is critical. Even slight fluctuations can render medications ineffective or, worse, unsafe. Every step of a cold chain must provide consistent environmental control to safeguard the integrity of the transported pharmaceutical products and follow strict regulations like Good Distribution Practice (GDP) guidelines for appropriate compliance.

Key requirements for successful temperature-controlled pharmaceutical logistics include:

  • Precise temperature control (commonly between 2°C and 8°C)

  • Continuous monitoring and temperature logging

  • Compliance with GDP regulations

  • Secure, contamination-free storage during transit

  • Real-time tracking and traceability of cargo

Justin HardmanBakery Manager at Rink Bakery

Our fleet will be the most technologically advanced pharmaceutical vans on the road, having been built exclusively for AAH by CoolKit to ensure product is delivered within GDP 2013 guidelines.

Steve AndersonOperations Director at Celesio UK, AAH Pharmaceuticals’ parent company

We have contracts with food manufacturers and suppliers and use the refrigerated vans to collect samples for microbiological, chemistry and molecular analysis. We collect from countless locations across the UK, delivering samples back to our nine food testing laboratories – and CoolKit did an excellent job. One thing they did was source a bespoke flooring for us that’s hygienic and easy to clean. Rather than having trays and boxes sliding around in the back it has given us a more stable load area.
