Cool business prompts K+N to invest in 50 temp-controlled trailers

IN a bid to expand its dedicated road-haul pharma network in Belgium and Luxembourg, Kuehne + Nagel (K+N) has invested in 50 temperature-controlled trailers that have built-in Discharge Air Control (DAC) and Precision Temperature Control (PTC) technology to protect their loads from temperature deviations.

According to K+N, it is "one of the first logistics providers to be equipped with such a large number of temperature-controlled trailers for serving the pharmaceutical industry," reported London's Air Cargo News, which noted that the company has 100 of the trailers operating across Europe.



"We are committed to investing in best-in-class equipment to ensure our customers' products arrive at their destination safe and completely intact through shipping fully compliant according to temperature guidelines," said K+N Belgium & Luxembourg chief Kevin Nash.



When announcing its 2016 results earlier this month, the company pointed out that its "leading solution for temperature-sensitive goods, pharmaceutical or perishable products, generated significant new business [and] the improved margins and operational efficiency led to further growth in profitability."
