IAG Cargo has enhanced its global pharmaceuticals offering with a new station at Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

This marks an expansion of IAG Cargo’s Constant Climate network, a cold chain solution designed specifically for the transportation of pharmaceuticals, such as vaccines, biotech products, and diagnostic samples, along with other temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical materials.

The company’s global network now includes around 100 Constant Climate-approved stations, with the new Kuala Lumpur station served by a daily London Heathrow–Kuala Lumpur service.

The GDP-certified Kuala Lumpur facility is equipped to handle both active and passive temperature-controlled shipments. Customers can also choose IAG Cargo’s Critical service, combining the highest priority shipping status with enhanced shipment monitoring for urgent temperature-sensitive shipments.

Jordan Kohlbeck, Head of Pharmaceutical at IAG Cargo, said, “Adding Kuala Lumpur to our Constant Climate network further enhances IAG Cargo’s presence in Southeast Asia, strengthening both our origin and destination capabilities for pharmaceutical and healthcare shipments. It expands our regional coverage and offers customers greater flexibility when moving temperature-sensitive goods across the globe.”
