Best is best in pharmaceutical transportation with sensors from GSGroup

Share article

Best Transport is a major player in the shipping of pharmaceuticals in Sweden. To ensure that medicines do not deteriorate during transport, there are strict requirements for a stable temperature in the cargo hold. Therefore, Best Transport has installed a mobile temperature monitoring system from GSGroup.

This means that Best Transport now has full control of the cargo.

Quality assured temperature monitoring from GSGroup

Jonas Wahlström is environment and quality manager at Best. He is primarily responsible for ensuring that all pharmaceutical shipments carried out by the company are of the highest quality. Wahlström is very pleased with the results of the GSGroup temperature monitoring system.

– The main advantage for us is that we can now very easily get the data we need to ensure quality during transportation. This is extremely important both for us and for our customers, and GSGroup has made this job much easier for us,” says Wahlström.

Easy to adjust the temperature in the cargo hold

Best’s trucks are now equipped with highly accurate temperature sensors. These sensors are installed in the cargo spaces and meet the stringent industry requirements of GDP and EN 12830:199.

The transport center can monitor the temperature during the journey, and the temperature in the cargo compartments is saved every five minutes. In the event of a temperature anomaly, a message is automatically sent to the central office.

– The monitoring is done centrally, so we have full control over the entire fleet at the same time. If the temperature changes in one of the cargo holds, the driver is immediately told to adjust the temperature in the cargo hold,” explains Wahlström.

An affordable, high quality product

It is very easy to install the wireless sensors. A central unit is first placed in the cab, and this communicates wirelessly with the sensors in the cargo hold. The GSGroup solution also scores well in terms of price compared to competing products.

– The sensor solution from GSGroup was the most beneficial to us financially of all the systems we looked at. And now that we have been using the system for more than a year, we can say that we are very happy with the contract we have signed and how the solution works in our daily operations!

Increase in the number of transport missions

It is very important for Best Transport to have high credibility as a quality provider of transportation services. Especially in pharmaceutical shipping, this is a crucial factor in retaining and developing good, loyal customers.

– GSGroup’s system has good features, is easy to use and has high accuracy. GSGroup also has a good reputation in the market. This is important for our credibility as a logistics partner. We have noticed an increase in the number of transport assignments from our existing customers, and this is incredibly important to us at Best Transport,” Wahlström concludes.
