Biopharmaceuticals & Clinical Trial Cold Chain Logistics
At CoolReach Logistics, we understand that Clinical trials are complex processes that require meticulous planning, control and execution. A well-functioning clinical trial supply chain is essential to ensure the success of these trials, especially when cold chain logistics are required to maintain product integrity. However, the industry faces several challenges that can hinder the smooth functioning of the supply chain.
Real-time
tracking & visibility
One of the significant challenges in clinical trial logistics is the lack of real-time visibility. The supply chain is often complex, with multiple stakeholders involved. Without proper visibility, it becomes challenging to track the movement of goods, leading to delays and increased costs.
At CoolReach, we can improve visibility for your clinical trial shipments, with advanced tracking technologies such as RFID, barcodes, and GPS. These technologies can provide real-time data on the location and status of goods, enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions — a critical requirement in effective cold chain logistics and modern logistics supply chain operations.
Temperature control
Maintaining the right temperature during the transportation and storage of drugs is crucial. However, this is often easier said than done. The lack of proper temperature control can compromise the efficacy of the drugs, leading to adverse effects and even trial failure.
To improve your cold chain management, we offer advanced temperature controlled packaging and temperature control courier solutions. This includes using insulated containers, temperature sensors, and data loggers. Regular monitoring and maintenance of the equipment are also essential to ensure optimal performance.
These services are core to our pharma logistics capabilities, supporting both domestic and international studies across your wider logistics supply chain.
CoolReach offers a personalised approach to support all aspects of your clinical trials supply chain. We combine years of domain experience, unrivaled responsiveness & personalisation as well as a global network of partners to support the full scope of your clinical supply chain needs — all within the framework of our wider healthcare logistics expertise.

Customised solutions: We always provide tailored & customised solutions that consider the specific requirements of each of your clinical trials, including the unique temperature sensitivity of different drugs and the varying geographical challenges across your clinical trial logistics network.
Direct-to-Patient (DTP) Clinical Logistics Solutions
Direct-to-patient clinical logistics in the context of cold chain management requires strict adherence to specific criteria to ensure the integrity and safety of sensitive medical products. These services form a vital part of our broader logistics supply chain solutions.
At CoolReach, we offer a personalised approach to every Direct-to-Patient Clinical Logistics requirement that includes:
Accurate Temperature Control:
This involves monitoring, controlling, and recording temperature data at every stage, including storage, transportation, and delivery to the patient’s location.
Advanced Packaging Systems:
Utilising appropriate temperature controlled packaging materials and methods that can sustain the required temperature range during transit. This includes using insulated containers, phase change materials, and temperature-monitoring devices to ensure the stability of the products.
Efficient Monitoring Systems:
Implementing robust monitoring systems that provide real-time data on temperature, location, and other relevant parameters is crucial. These systems help in identifying any deviations from the set conditions, enabling timely interventions to prevent product damage — a key strength of our clinical trial supply services.
Highly Trained Staff:
Our staff is highly trained & educated in handling and transporting sensitive medical products, ensuring every delivery meets the strict expectations of the clinical logistics environment and broader logistics supply chain.
