Combined Warehousing and Shipment Centre

Overview

Web-based retail and ordering increasingly power global markets in pharmaceutical and biotech products. However this creates new challenges when those products are also temperature sensitive.

Speed and security of purchase needs to be matched by speed and reliability of fulfillment, with temperature control at each stage of the delivery chain.

Cryo Store warehousing service provides the answer: a European-based cool chain logistics center and delivery service that acts as a gateway between Europe and overseas markets.

Facilities

The Cryo Store distribution center is a combined cool-chain storage and distribution hub that brings together advanced temperature control with advanced logistics management.

Temperature control

The warehouse offers product storage at -80°C, -30 °C, +4°C and room temperature. Storage facilities comply with the highest standards for temperature registration, security and back up.

Each freezer is equipped with optical and acoustic alarm as well as CO2 cooling backup. In addition, all units are connected to Cryo Store’s data monitoring and alarm systems and backup power generator. Together, these features guarantee secure temperature control.

Product Database

Every product or sample entering the warehouse is allocated a unique physical position and reference number in Cryo Store’s custom built database. If possible, the product also gets a unique barcode. This ensured full track and trace from entry through to final delivery to end-user.

Expedited delivery

Cryo Store’s deep knowledge and years of experience in storage, packing and shipping temperature sensitive goods ensures speed and safety along the whole logistics pipeline, including compliance with international standards and regulation, all necessary documentation, and liaison with couriers and shipping agents. This ensures fault-free and speedy delivery to the customer site.

Benefits

Combining temperature control expertise in storage and packing with logistics expertise and connections creates a clear set of customer benefits.

Continuous cool chain

With temperature control and monitoring at each stage of the chain, from storage through to transport, customer can have peace of mind that fragile products are being maintained at correct temperature throughout the process.

Speedier delivery

European customers often complain about delays at the border and the need to pre-pay import duties and VAT to the courier. Such delays can be disastrous for temperature sensitive goods.

Cryo Store’s ‘joined up’ Warehousing and Delivery service offers the solution, with all clearances and documentation handled in one centralized operation with full track and trace management.

This allows order fulfillment direct from web to customer, to distributors or drop ship to their customers direct from a European stock warehouse that functions as the client’s own logistics center.

Quality assurance

Cryo Store’s advanced facilities and compliance with international standards also ensures better management over shelf life, first in-first out tracking and quality maintenance.

Cryo Store’s logistical services allow clients to focus on sales, marketing, business development and supporting their own customers with technical support. The warehousing and delivery service ensures products are delivered on time, at the right place and in perfect condition.
