Qatar Airways Cargo and Envirotainer have joined forces to offer a more sustainable solution for shipping temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals.

By capitalising on both organisations’ extensive network capabilities, along with Envirotainer’s Releye container, CO2 shipment emissions can be reduced by up to 90% compared to other solutions, the partners claimed.

The Releye RLP and RLP solutions also ensure precise temperature control throughout the entire transportation process.

Miguel Rodriguez, head of cargo products at Qatar Airways Cargo, said: “This collaboration marks a significant milestone for Qatar Airways Cargo as we continue to enhance our capabilities in delivering pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive cargo worldwide. 

“At Qatar Airways Cargo, we understand the criticality of maintaining the cold chain and ensuring that pharmaceuticals reach their destination in optimal conditions. 

“By joining forces with Envirotainer, we can offer our customers seamless access to their industry-leading containers, which are specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.”

Akos Balkanyi, Envirotainer, global key account manager, stated: “Through the optimisation of our operations and investment in cutting-edge solutions such the Releye units, we are actively reducing our environmental impact and contributing to a greener future reducing up to 90% our CO2 emissions. 

“We are excited about this collaboration and the positive impact it will have on our customers and the industry as a whole.”

The collaboration between Qatar Airways Cargo and Envirotainer underscores ongoing commitment of both organisations to investing in the latest technologies to meet the needs of the life sciences sector.
