DACHSER has announced it has renewed its IATA CEIV Pharma certification in Frankfurt. DACHSER reported that the certification renewal showcases that the Frankfurt Airport branch meets the highest service and quality standards in the transport of life science and healthcare products

The transport of life science and health care products must meet exacting standards. Drugs and other pharmaceutical products are often temperature-sensitive, urgent shipments that must be handled in compliance with a complex regulatory environment. As an industry standard, IATA CEIV Pharma certification covers the specific requirements of senders of pharmaceutical products with regard to safe, correct, and efficient air freight services.

The same standards apply for recertification as for initial certification. IATA CEIV Pharma certification requires internal and external training, a review of procedures for handling temperature-controlled life science and healthcare shipments, and an extensive assessment of these complex processes by two independent auditors.

Head of Global Air Freight Timo Stroh commented: “Our location at Frankfurt Airport is immensely important for our global network. The location is crucial for the further development of our industry solution for customers in the life science and healthcare sector”.

DACHSER Air and Sea Logistics is IATA CEIV Pharma certified on three continents. The other DACHSER locations with this IATA certification are Shanghai, China; Mumbai and Hyderabad, India; and Atlanta, US.
