Partnership with one of the leading stevedoring companies allows to provide forwarding operations in the time interval which is required by our customers and to offer the best routes for cargo delivery. Experts are always ready to provide high-quality services in combination with professional skills and knowledge of the local market. For transportation of pharmaceuticals demanding observance of certain temperature regime refrigerated containers are used. It is possible to make full (FCL) and/or partial (LCL) loading - use LCL as the cheapest and convenient solution for transportation of small pharmaceutical freights. Temperature in the container is traced by means of special electronic sensors which provide records of temperature indicators on the surface and inside the container.

• Fleet of ref containers allows to secure temperature regime within the range of -25 °C to +30 °C
• There are 20 feet  and 40 feet ref containers; ref containers are controlled by means of built-in microprocessor and allow regulation of air circulation, humidity level; isolation without CFC (secure minimum losses of temperature); cooling/warming equipment of the highest quality.

Railway transport can reach the most remote destinations and deliver goods with observance of necessary temperature regime. Ask for transportation quotes of liquid and dry freights or chemical substances, request tariffs for a van or a platform, obtain information on geographical coverage of regions in Europe, CIS, Central Asia. In cooperation with highly professional partner – a railway company - we organize forwarding of freights by rail from station of departure to destination station, with possibility of further delivery to the consignee warehouse. Thermolabile pharmaceuticals are transported in 40 foot refrigerator containers which are put on fitting platforms. Refrigerator containers are specialized containers with thermo isolated case equipped with refrigerating system which maintains preset temperature in the range from -25 °C to +25 °C in the container. Flexible system of formation of refrigerator containers’ train allows to transport freight from 20 to 550 tons within distances over 5 thousand kilometers, with continuous maintenance of necessary temperature regime. Train is serviced by the team of mechanics which provides supervision of containers serviceability and freight safety during the whole transit period.
