Worldwide shipping of COVID-19 test kits with the Landbox Straw

Discover the sustainable cold chain of QIAGEN's highly temperature-sensitive products.

In the dawn of the COVID-19 pandemic, our customer QIAGEN started to switch its refrigerated packaging from EPS to straw after a thorough validation process. 

QIAGEN was one of the only companies at that point that could offer a COVID-19 test kit, which had to be swiftly packed and shipped to destinations worldwide.

QIAGEN serves more than 500,000 customers around the globe with hundreds of different testing kits. The accuracy of these tests is extremely crucial; otherwise, the results are useless. Consequently, production must be contamination-free and temperature-controlled at all times. These high standards have to be maintained during transportation as well.

Watch the video for more information about how QIAGEN ships its valuable products globally.
