Pharma.Aero’s top sustainability recommendation for a greener air cargo industry is to adopt lightweight packaging solutions. This approach not only reduces the carbon footprint but also enhances efficiency in logistics operations.

Exam Packaging, in collaboration with SmartCAE GmbH & Co. KG, conducted an extensive simulation to analyze the carbon footprint in global aerial cold chain logistics. The study aimed to identify the most effective strategies for minimizing environmental impact while maintaining the integrity of pharmaceutical products during transportation.

The results are striking! Lightweight pallet shippers can significantly reduce CO₂ emissions, making them a game-changer in sustainable logistics. Specifically, the findings revealed that:

🔹 Lightweight pallet shippers can reduce CO₂ emissions by 76% compared to active rigid containers.


🔹 They can also achieve a 63% reduction in CO₂ emissions compared to passive rigid containers.

These impressive reductions highlight the importance of smarter packaging solutions in achieving a smaller environmental footprint. By prioritizing lightweight materials, the air cargo industry can make substantial strides towards sustainability, ensuring that the transportation of critical pharmaceutical products is both eco-friendly and efficient.


Smarter packaging, smaller footprint. 🌍✨

Join the movement towards a greener future with Exam Packaging and Pharma.Aero. Together, we can make a difference in the cold chain logistics industry.
