DHL is opening a new pharmaceutical grade facility in Ireland

Global logistics provider DHL Supply Chain is opening a new pharmaceutical grade facility in Ireland. Located at Horizon Logistics Park by Dublin Airport, the site is fully approved by the Health Products Regulatory Authority (HPRA) and represents an important extension of the company's proven global pharmaceutical supply chain capability. The brand-new, secure facility will allow pharmaceutical companies manufacturing in Ireland to enjoy fully compliant temperature controlled end-to-end supply chain management including: storage, pick & pack and inventory control. Plans are in place to extend the service across the temperature regimes and provide value-added repack and postponement services. The new DHL logistics center is expected to create up to 50 jobs over the coming months. With 3,700 sq. m. (40,000 sq. ft) of warehousing space, the new facility will provide a superior logistics solution for pharmaceutical companies based in Ireland. Segregated into different temperature regimes, the site offers a range of storage environments including: ambient (15 - 25 degrees); chill (2-8 degrees); and a blast & holding freezer capable of temperatures of -20 degrees. The new facility makes Ireland the 43rd country in which DHL has established a Life Sciences Center of Excellence, offering full access and integration with DHL's temperature controlled transport services by Road, Air, Ocean and Express. Located close to European markets and well serviced by road, air and sea, nine out of ten of the top global pharmaceutical companies and nine out of the top ten biopharmaceutical companies have already chosen Ireland as their manufacturing base.
