Customer feedback and industry studies have shown us that the need to reload a container at an airport significantly increases the risk of product theft and temperature excursions.
This is why we enable door-to-door processes, which can be used by any pharma company and their freight forwarders. Using SkyCell containers eliminates the need to reload at airports and the goods go straight through to the customers’ warehouse and to the distributors. At the end of the trip, SkyCell is notified as usual and organizes the reverse logistics.
Door-to-door processes offer significant added value to customers who ship valuable temperature-sensitive goods to major and emerging markets. We are rapidly expanding the list of countries where we can offer door-to-door enabled processes.”

Delivery Options
- Just in time – delivered quality-checked, pre-conditioned, ready-to-use
