With a temperature-controlled warehouse between 15 and 25 °C and the additional cooling area with a temperature
range between 2 and 8 °C, the new Pharma Cross Dock offers optimal conditions for the handling and interim
storage of pharmaceutical products. The new facility ensures continuous cooling along the entire transport and
logistics chain. The direct connection to the A45 motorway and the proximity to Frankfurt Airport ensure good
accessibility.
The transportation of vaccines and pharmaceuticals requires fast handling and a continuously temperaturecontrolled environment. In addition to the CEIV certification1 of the Frankfurt site, Rodgau offers GDP-compliant
solutions for quality assurance in pharmaceutical distribution and is therefore an integral part of the global expansion
to strengthen the 27 CEIV-certified air freight locations.
"In addition to the strategic acquisition of transport specialist trans-o-flex at the beginning of the year, Rodgau is
now our first Pharma Cross Dock in Germany to go into active operation. With this investment, we are creating an
important basis for our further positioning in the German market, which is considered Europe’s most important
exporter of pharmaceuticals, and is thus significantly strengthening our portfolio for sensitive and fast air freight in
pharmaceutical logistics," says Antje Lochmann, Managing Director Germany.
1CEIV Pharma Certification is a globally consistent and recognized pharmaceutical product handling certification to
ensure the international and national compliance to safeguard product integrity while addressing specific air cargo
needs.
