Coolest cargo flies Emirates

Emirates six-flights-a-week service to Ahmedabad, effective on Monday, heralds the introduction of Emirates SkyCargo’s Cool Chain Solutions to the state’s pharmaceutical industry.
From Ahmedabad, Emirates SkyCargo, the cargo arm of the Dubai-based airline will offer over 110 tonnes of capacity per week per direction, together with its specially-designed temperature-controlled air cargo containers that maintain stable interior temperatures throughout the journey. Featuring active temperature control systems that range from -20°C to +20°C, Emirates SkyCargo’s containers keep product temperature stable despite fluctuations in ambient temperatures.
Home to over 3000 pharmaceutical industrial units, and investing over US1.6 billion in the industry, Gujarat contributes 28 per cent to the production and export basket of India’s pharmaceutical sector.
As a result of a global network spanning 94 gateways in 60 countries and a seamless transportation chain using the latest technologies in air cargo containers, life-saving medicines from Ahmedabad will make their way to pharmacies in the Middle East, Europe, United States of America, Far East, and Africa.
