Pharmaceutical Cold Chain — Storage & Transport
One brief for the pharmaceutical cold chain. ColdMatch helps buyers specify storage (+2/+8°C, -20°C, -80°C, cryogenic) and temperature-controlled transport, approaches manufacturers, EPC contractors and logistics providers on the buyer's behalf, and compares their proposals with qualification documents tracked as requested, received or reviewed. Qualified projects can be introduced to independent financing partners.
A senior cold-chain specialist stays with your project from first brief to commissioning.

Pharma cold rooms specified with the mapping, monitoring, backup power and redundancy your EU GDP or WHO guidance requires.
-20°C & -80°C freezers
Frozen and ultra-low freezers for vaccines, biologics, mRNA products and long-term biobanking.
Cryogenic & LN₂
Cryogenic vaults, dewars and vapor shippers for cell & gene therapy, stem cells and reproductive medicine.
Active air containers

IQ / OQ / PQ documentation
Qualification, temperature-mapping and validation deliverables written into the RFQ, so each proposal states what it includes.
