Discover how innovative cold chain solutions are reshaping the pharmaceutical industry towards sustainability, reducing reliance on air transport and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions along the supply chain journey. Amidst tightening regulations on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards worldwide, pharmaceutical companies are rapidly transforming their value chains to prioritize sustainability. Leading firms in the pharma and life sciences sector are embracing sustainability as a fundamental value, aligning with global initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTI) and the Paris Agreement. One such pioneering company, a global pharmaceutical leader dedicated to developing and supplying innovative medicines and vaccines, has set ambitious goals to achieve net-zero emissions by 2040, driving transformative change across their operations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
In an era where healthcare quality is paramount, the pharmaceutical industry faces fierce competition amidst a growing global population. The demand for high-value pharmaceutical services, especially those ensuring a seamless cold chain, has never been higher. Traditionally reliant on air transportation, pharmaceutical freight is now under scrutiny due to sustainability concerns. Organizations are increasingly exploring low greenhouse gas emission alternatives to meet sustainability targets.
To address these challenges, innovative cold chain management solutions have been developed, providing comprehensive management of logistics intricacies while meeting Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards. Through dedicated teams stationed at both origin and destination, alongside vigilant 24/7 monitoring, real-time tracking, and swift intervention capabilities, seamless product quality protection is ensured throughout the journey.
The transition from air to sea freight has not only led to significant cost savings but has also resulted in a substantial reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Despite air freight offering faster delivery, the customer aims to achieve a 50% share of ocean freight by 2025, underscoring their commitment to sustainability. With approximately 70% of their ocean freight now handled by low-emission solutions, both parties are driving towards a more sustainable future in pharmaceutical logistics.
