Indiana is a critical Midwest logistics hub in the United States and home to many pharmaceutical and life science companies. Demand for temperature-controlled, cGMP-compliant logistics facilities has grown rapidly in recent years, and MD Logistics has responded with a phased renovation of its facilities.
In September 2024, the North Area (approx. 18,500m2) of the same location was refurbished to make it a cGMP-compliant facility dedicated to pharmaceuticals offering two temperature zones: a constant-temperature zone (15-25C) and a refrigerated zone (2-8C). With the recent renovation of the South Area (approx. 18,500m2), the entire facility can now operate as a dedicated pharmaceutical warehouse.
The South Area renovation has created a constant-temperature area (15-25C) that provides an optimal storage environment for ensuring the quality of pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, and other health-related products. This will enable MD Logistics to respond flexibly to demand from new customers as well as existing ones, and to meet the needs of the expanding life science and pharmaceutical industries.
The NX Group will continue supporting customers in the global pharmaceutical industry by building a reliable and secure global pharmaceutical logistics platform with the aim of contributing to human health around the world.
