DHL stations in Hamburg and Frankfurt gain IATA CEIV Pharma Certification

DHL Global Forwarding’s air freight stations in Frankfurt and Hamburg have been certified as meeting the CEIV Pharma Standard of the International Air Transport Association (IATA).

The DHL Thermonet Station in Leipzig was the first German centre to receiving this quality label, in April this year.

The certification attests the highest service and quality standards for life sciences and healthcare customers.

“Time critical and temperature sensitive pharmaceutical products require the highest quality standards in terms of warehousing, transportation and handling. To achieve this, standardized processes and a compliant, well-orchestrated network are mandatory,” said Thilo Specht, Vice President Airfreight Germany, DHL Global Forwarding.

“Seeing Frankfurt and Hamburg extending our global network on stations certified according the IATA CEIV Pharma Standard is a great achievement giving a strong signal in terms of quality and reliability towards our customers.”
