Pharmaceuticals and Clinical Trials

For the healthcare industry there is no room for error. A patient is waiting for the shipment, so it needs to arrive on time and in perfect condition. Compliance and quality are crucial, yet regulations are continually changing and may vary at each port of entry. Four Winds Saudi Arabia has been one of Saudi Arabia's leading providers of comprehensive supply chain services to importers and manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and laboratories.

Clinical trials logistics

Temperature deviation is the number one cause of loss in the clinical trials world. After investing millions into research, the last thing you would expect is a temperature exposure. Our clinical trials logistics service ensures that biological samples and returned drugs for destruction are collected from your site or country depots quickly and efficiently, within pre-determined temperature ranges and under tight time pressures.

We offer passive packaging services that keep the temperature within range passively for up to 72 hours, and we rely on our long experience in customs clearance and cold transportation to deliver the shipment on time and in perfect condition, as promised.
