LOT Cargo secures IATA CEIV Pharma recertification

LOT Cargo has secured IATA CEIV Pharma recertification, confirming continued compliance with the programme’s standards for pharmaceutical and healthcare shipments. The recertification covers the air cargo arm of LOT Polish Airlines and underlines its ability to handle temperature-sensitive medical freight under the requirements expected by shippers and forwarders moving critical healthcare products.

The renewed status indicates that LOT Cargo continues to meet strict process, temperature-control and handling criteria across its pharma cargo operations. CEIV Pharma is widely used across the air freight sector as a benchmark for specialist logistics capability in healthcare transport, where product integrity depends on tightly managed ground and air handling.

The development is relevant for freight forwarders and pharmaceutical shippers using LOT Cargo’s network, particularly on routes carrying medicines and other sensitive healthcare consignments. The recertification follows the latest review of the airline’s pharma-handling standards and keeps the carrier within the group of operators recognised for compliant pharmaceutical logistics.
