Frequently asked questions — Pharmaceutical & life sciences
Does ColdMatch source GDP-validated pharma warehouses?+
Yes. Every pharma project is shortlisted to suppliers with documented GDP, GMP, ISO 9001 and (where required) FDA-compliant project history.
Can we get redundant cooling for vaccine and biologics storage?+
All pharma proposals default to N+1 redundancy, backup generation and validated 21 CFR Part 11 monitoring. We won't shortlist suppliers that can't deliver this.
How long does validation and licensing typically take?+
Mapping, qualification and ministry licensing usually run 4–8 months in parallel with construction. ColdMatch coordinates the EPC + validation provider to compress this timeline.
Can ColdMatch help finance a pharma cold-storage build?+
Yes — equipment leasing, ECA-backed loans and project financing are available from $500K to $50M. See the financing page.
