SATS and KLN to advance temperature-controlled and time-critical logistics

The partnership targets stronger handling of sensitive and time-critical cargo across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

KLN Freight International Limited has signed a memorandum of understanding with SATS Ltd. to advance temperature-controlled and time-critical logistics through strategic collaborations.

As an initial step, SATS and KLN Freight will focus on two strategic initiatives under a value-added service programme: end-to-end temperature-controlled handling solutions to support the transport and storage of sensitive cargo, and the expedited handling of time-critical shipments that require speed, precision, and reliability.

“For time-critical and sensitive cargo such as healthcare shipments, every touchpoint in the supply chain is critical to safeguarding patient safety and service continuity,” Wong Siew Loong, executive director and chief operating officer of KLN, said in a statement.

The partnership is expected to scale solutions across the two parties’ combined networks in Asia, Europe, and the Americas, creating efficiency throughout the end-to-end supply chain.

“Singapore will be the first station for these initiatives, serving as a launchpad for solutions that can be scaled across our respective global networks,” Martin Holme, chief commercial officer of SATS, said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
