What GDP certification guarantees

Good Distribution Practice (GDP) are European guidelines ensuring the quality and integrity of medicines throughout the distribution chain. GDP certification attests that Franzosini manages pharmaceutical transport in compliance with rigorous conditions: temperature control, complete traceability, contamination prevention, returns and recalls management, supplier qualification.

Temperature-controlled pharmaceutical transport

Medicines require specific transport conditions to maintain their efficacy and safety. Franzosini has temperature-controlled vehicles and warehouses, continuous temperature monitoring systems with data recording, thermal deviation management procedures and staff trained to GDP standards. Every pharmaceutical shipment is documented with the complete cold chain.

Why choose a GDP-certified carrier

For pharmaceutical companies, wholesalers and pharmacies, relying on a GDP-certified carrier is not just good practice: it is a European regulatory obligation. Franzosini's GDP certification ensures compliance with EU Directive 2013/C 343/01, protecting clients from legal liability and ensuring medicines reach patients in optimal conditions.
