Qatar Airways – Pharma’s flexible friend

[ May 6, 2026   //   Chris Lewis ]

Qatar Airways Cargo has introduced a Pharma Passive FlexTemp solution to manage dual-temperature requirements within shipment journeys.

Available as an add-on service for Pharma Passive and Pharma Critical Passive, it supports temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical and healthcare shipments as their thermal needs evolve during transit—particularly when single-use passive packaging reaches the end of its effective life cycle.

As the use of self-contained passive packaging continues to grow in pharma, so too does the complexity of temperature control. Many shipments begin their journey within a defined temperature range, secured by passive solutions, but then require a different transport temperature to preserve product integrity, a transition phase that has been largely unsupported until now, says Qatar.
