Temperature-Controlled Food Shipments: Italian Excellence Worldwide

The export of Italian agri-food products requires the highest logistical standards. Cheeses, cured meats, truffles and regional specialities are perishable products that require rigorous cold chain management. IWS Srl offers a specialised temperature-controlled food shipping service, designed to ensure that the excellence of Made in Italy reaches tables around the world while maintaining its freshness, flavour and organoleptic properties intact.

Cold Chain Logistics: Safety and Regulatory Compliance

The transport of perishable foodstuffs is strictly regulated. IWS operates in full compliance with the ATP regulations (Accord Transport Perissable) and rigorous international health and hygiene standards. We exclusively use air-conditioned warehouses and the latest generation of isothermal and refrigerated vehicles, capable of maintaining constant temperatures (from 0°C to +4°C for fresh products, or lower temperatures depending on product specifications) throughout the entire journey, whether by road, sea or air.

Our Services for the Food & Beverage Sector

Our service is aimed at producers, distributors, food e-commerce businesses and private individuals, offering flexible and tailor-made solutions:

• International Food Export: B2B shipments for large-scale retail, restaurants and foreign importers, with a particular focus on strategic markets such as the USA, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
• Sample Shipments: Fast and safe dispatch of food samples for industry trade fairs, international buyers, competitions and specialist publications.
• Food E-commerce (B2C): Comprehensive logistics support for those selling typical Italian products online to expats or food lovers abroad, guaranteeing fast door-to-door deliveries.
• Trade Fairs and Events: Dedicated logistics management for food and wine events, masterclasses and international show cooking events.

Thermal Packaging and Customs Management

In addition to refrigerated transport, product protection begins with the packaging. IWS designs and supplies personalised thermal packaging (with dry ice or refrigerant gel) designed to maintain the ideal temperature even during the delicate phases of airport transit or final delivery.

Furthermore, our team of customs experts handles all the bureaucratic procedures necessary for non-EU food export, including health certifications and FDA registrations for the United States, avoiding customs delays that could compromise the freshness of the goods.
