Shipping Pharma Products from Long Beach to Atlanta via Air Freight

Moving temperature-sensitive medicines Requires qualified cold-chain containers, suitable refrigerants, and unbroken temperature monitoring. Select an express service where possible, pre-cool gel packs, and place a data logger in the carton to verify that medical drugs stayed within their labeled temperature range.

Fragile glass vials of pharma products must be packed in Molded trays with surrounding foam. Set trays inside a double-walled box and block and brace with void-fill so nothing moves. For moisture-sensitive medical drugs, pair this with moisture-barrier inner bags and desiccants.

International shipments of pharma products typically demand a detailed commercial invoice, packing list, and any Licenses required by the importing country. Several markets also ask for Certificates of Analysis, proof of GDP-compliant handling, and clear temperature instructions for cold-chain medicines. Double-check requirements with your customs broker before shipping.

For moisture-sensitive pharma products, select Foil-laminate pouches plus desiccant sachets inside the packaging. Close cartons tightly, avoid damaged boxes, and select transport options that reduce exposure to rain and high humidity, such as covered docks and climate-controlled linehaul for medical drugs.

High-value medicines generally need Specialized cargo insurance that covers temperature excursions, breakage, and theft. Coordinate with an insurer familiar with pharmaceutical goods, specify the full replacement value, and retain temperature and handling records so claims can be processed efficiently if something goes wrong.

Pharmaceuticals require temperature-controlled environments during air transport to ensure product integrity. It is essential to monitor and maintain specific temperature ranges as per regulatory guidelines throughout the entire route.

The shipment must include a bill of lading, commercial invoice, and any necessary permits or certificates specific to pharmaceuticals, such as a Certificate of Analysis and compliance with FDA regulations, ensuring proper customs clearance upon arrival in Atlanta.
