DHL upgrades next-day Medical Express service for Latin America

DHL Express International Sharper DHL Express has grown by adding a warm from Brazil to the United States to the Medical Express service.

According to a press release that was sent via email to Freightwaves by DHL, this new call links South America and Puerto Rico to the United States, with the aim of accelerating connections to customers in the pharmaceutical and clinical research sectors.

“With the Medical Express, DHL Express manages the export and organizational requirements for urgent shipments that require specific temperature controls,” and he mentioned the Thursday version.

The service will help accelerate the transfer of samples from Puerto Rico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Peru to the US Central destination laboratories in less than 30 hours from the time of the patient’s drawing. It provides dry ice supplies, online packaging control and online tools to put reservations and request supplies.

In addition, the DHL network was upgraded in Brazil through a specialized customer service center equipped with two -language representatives.

“Given the complexities of export operations, tax payments, and the approvals of AnVisa (the necessary health organizational agency for Brazil) in Brazil, our integrated DHL system allows the start of export approvals before the samples reach our facilities,” said Brian Bralinski, Director of Life Sciences at DHL Express, said. “This enables DHL to extend the subsequent assembly times for researchers, which allows more time to schedule the patient’s visits while continuing to export on the assembly day.”

The statement stated that since 2023, DHL Miami’s aircraft left to its center at Cincinnati Airport and the northern Kentucky Airport in the morning instead of evening. This has allowed 65 % of patient samples surrounding now the US Central Laboratory Labs to test one day soon.

“The DHL Medical Express is a need for decisive services for specialized services in pharmaceutical and secret research sectors,” Andrew Williams, CEO of DHL Express America said in the version. “It is a very effective solution due to our strong international network and a deep understanding of the regulatory requirements involved in the import and export of medicines, test groups, and diagnostic samples.”

The news comes after the DHL Group announced its plans this month to invest more than two billion dollars to enhance its capabilities in the logistics and health care of life sciences by 2030.
