Keeping it cool in Basel

Swissport has handled over 1,000 temperature-controlled containers at its cool+connect facility at EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg, opened in February 2025. It reflects strong growth in pharmaceutical volumes and Basel’s role as a key gateway for life science air cargo.   

Swissport says it has optimized the handling of +2 to +8°C shipments by consolidating them directly at the airport to be loaded into Active Cooltainers, maintaining  the cool chain. It also eliminates off-airport trucking loops, reduces handling times by around 70% and materially lowers CO₂ emissions.
