Integra2 carries out the distribution to hospitals in Spain

 

Integra2, Grupo Logista’s capillary transport network under controlled temperature, has been chosen by Baxter España as its new strategic partner for distributing its health products and medicines at a temperature below 25ºC to hospitals, clinics and primary care centers  in the Iberian Peninsula, Balearic Islands, Ceuta and Melilla.

Baxter so proves its fast response capabilities to new regulations, collaborating with Integra2 to distribute its products with the FARMA<25º service, which keeps products below 25ºC throughout the whole transport and distribution process, with provable physical and thermal traceability.

With this agreement, Integra2 expands and consolidates its services to Baxter, as it was already distributing its thermolabile products under controlled temperature between 2ºC and 8ºC with its FRIOFARMA service.

The experience in distribution channels for pharmaceutical products, the proven compliance with Good Distribution Practices guidelines, Grupo Logista’s financial soundness and the company’s environmental sensitivity were keys for Baxter in choosing Integra2.

Integra2 is the benchmark capillary transport company under controlled temperature for the pharmaceutical and food industries in Spain and Portugal.

The firm provides the certified maintenance of the cold chain throughout its warehousing and transport network, consisting of 59 delegations with refrigerated chambers and pre-chambers and over 1,000 vehicles with provable temperature control during transport.
