At DSV we have decades of experience working with all types of healthcare transport combined with an extensive global network. Regardless of whether your goods travel by air, sea or road, they will be transported in full compliance with all applicable regulations and quality standards – even if they spend time in storage on their journey. 

Our healthcare transport services also include customs clearance and supply chain security.

Our active and passive solutions include thermal blankets or covers to protect against heat or cold, Styroboxes with gel packs, active electric containers with a cooling unit, or containers with dry ice or liquid nitrogen.

End-to-end visibility and traceability

Whichever form of transport you use, you can follow the progress of your shipment from the moment it leaves your facilities until it arrives at its destination. Our transportation services can include cargo monitoring in terms of temperature, humidity, shock, light, and geolocation via data loggers.

Furthermore, our control tower and dashboard solutions give you a real-time overview at shipment and purchase order level. These dynamic solutions support you to increase efficiency and handle your inventory and costs more smoothly.

To minimize your risk, we can carry out risk validation for the entire supply chain covering compliance and security aspects of our suppliers and sub-contractors. This even extends to validation of weather conditions during transport.
