    Cold Chain Technologies (CCT), a provider of reusable and single-use thermal packaging solutions, recently expanded into Europe, the Middle East and Africa with the opening of its new regional headquarters based in the Netherlands.

    The new headquarters will enhance service for customers in the Life Sciences industry by bringing customer-facing and support functions closer to the client, CCT said. The EMEA region is a key growth market for CCT as it continues to expand globally.

    “In order to meet our extensive growth plans for the EMEA region, we are implementing a direct approach to our customers and clients in order to continue supporting them with the most extensive portfolio of temperature-controlled solutions,” said Kristian Williams, CCT’s regional sales director for EMEA, who is based in the United Kingdom.

    “This will ensure that we are providing our clients with best-in-class services as our reusable network continues to grow throughout the region and globally.”

    Kristof De Smedt, global business unit director for Cold Chain Technologies B.V. in the Netherlands, said: “Cold Chain Technologies is proud to continue to provide DuPont Tyvek Cargo Covers throughout the EMEA region directly to our healthcare and life science customers.

    “DuPont Tyvek Cargo Covers are validated in a wide variety of distribution applications worldwide to secure integrity and efficacy of temperature-sensitive healthcare and life science products including the COVID-19 vaccine.”
