DoKaSch Thermal Solutions has opened new Opticooler® stations in Miami, USA, and Dublin, Ireland. These strategic locations enhance DoKaSch TS’s reach and provide better access to our reliable packaging solutions in the Americas and Europe, supporting the global supply of life-saving medicines.
Located near Miami International Airport (MIA), this new terminal will increase Opticooler® availability in the southern United States and provide more flexibility to customers in the region as well as Latin America. The terminal’s initial capacity is 30 containers, and it is scheduled to be expanded in the future. Miami International Airport, the 10th busiest airport in the United States, is a major hub for air traffic between the Americas and Latin America. The airport handles more than 451,000 square feet of specialized facilities for temperature-sensitive goods, making it an ideal location for pharmaceutical distribution. In 2023 alone, $3.9 billion worth of medical products were administered at Hamad International Airport.
The Dublin terminal, with an initial capacity of 40 containers, highlights Ireland’s growing importance in the life sciences sector. Ireland is home to manufacturing facilities for the world’s ten largest pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies, and is the fifth largest exporter of pharmaceutical products, according to the OECD.
The new Opticooler® stations in Miami and Dublin fit perfectly into DoKaSch Thermal Solutions’ extensive free delivery areas. This service ensures that Opticooler® RAP and RKN containers are delivered directly to the loading point, with DoKaSch organizing and coordinating. Large free delivery areas are available in Europe and the US, with smaller areas covered in Asia, providing significant savings on transportation costs. Our goal is to deliver the Opticooler® the evening before the start of the rental period, ensuring that the container is fully air-conditioned and ready for use. Even outside of free delivery areas, DoKaSch delivers worldwide, ensuring customers benefit from cost savings, enhanced efficiency and improved flexibility. With the opening of the new stations, these benefits have become more accessible, strengthening its global network and connections.

Our goal is to ensure the best availability of Opticooler® worldwide and provide a reliable cold chain. These new sites will further strengthen We reach clients in the Americas and Europe.
