Medical warehousing in Törökbálint: marked locations, labelled items and impact-protected shelving in the 300 m² medtech zone.

Built for medical devices, not converted from general freight

A lot that can’t be traced back in a recall. An implant set that doesn’t return before the next surgery. A consignment stock that runs out on Friday afternoon. We designed our operation around these failure points.

Medical device logistics services from one site

Healthcare logistics from the inbound pallet to the operating theatre: medical device storage, consignment warehouse management, hospital delivery with a dedicated fleet, customs clearance and a web customer portal, in one quality management system.

Temperature-controlled storage and monitoring

17–23 °C, temperature monitoring with TESTO sensors and instant alerts. Separate quarantine, returns and recall zones.

Lot, serial number and expiry management

Captured at receipt, together with UDI. FEFO picking, automatic expiry monitoring with an e-mail warning 7 days before expiry, and full history for every lot.

Minimum stock monitoring

Minimum levels set per item. When stock falls below them, we send an automatic e-mail alert so replenishment can start on time.

Hospital consignment stock

Usage-based replenishment, consumption reconciliation for invoicing and on-site stock counts. Your sales reps do not have to deal with logistics.

Implant and loaner sets

Dispatch, return, completeness check and restocking, with turnaround times agreed per set and per hospital.

Delivery to hospitals and clinics

With a dedicated vehicle fleet: same-day delivery in Budapest, next-day nationwide, with proof of delivery that includes lot data.

Recall and FSCA

Identifying and blocking the affected lots, collecting stock back from customers and hospitals, and a reconciliation report for you and the authority.

Import and customs clearance

AEO-certified customs clearance for non-EU devices, with uninterrupted put-away.

Time-critical transport

Surgery-critical parts by dedicated vehicle or on-board courier, through the WCA Time Critical and X2 Critical networks.

Web customer portal

Check warehouse stock from anywhere in your browser. Download stock reports and place orders in one interface, while minimum stock and expiry alerts arrive automatically by e-mail.

Supporting your MDR obligations

We support your obligations as manufacturer, importer or distributor under Regulation (EU) 2017/745: packaging and label checks on receipt, immediate hand-over of non-conformities and complaints, a traceability register under Article 25 of the MDR (10 years, 15 years for implantable devices), and full cooperation during inspections by the National Public Health and Pharmaceutical Centre (NNGYK).

Quality agreement

We conclude a customer-specific quality agreement and welcome your auditors on site. We send our quality documentation package before the first meeting.

Go-live within 72 hours after the quality agreement

The 72 hours run from the signing of the quality agreement and approval of the item master to the first live order. Scheduling the qualification beforehand depends on your supplier qualification process.

Question not here? Write to us, and we reply within one business day.

Yes. We keep the 300 m² medtech area at 17–23 °C, monitor it continuously with TESTO sensors and alert instantly on any deviation, 24 hours a day.

Yes. Lot, serial number and expiry data are captured on receipt and assigned to every shipment, so any item can be traced to the customer. We send an automatic e-mail warning 7 days before expiry.

In our web customer portal you can check stock from anywhere, download stock reports and place orders. We send automatic e-mail alerts for items below minimum level and for items expiring within 7 days.

Yes. We replenish consignment stock held in hospitals based on usage and reconcile consumption for invoicing.

Based on lot data, we identify and block the affected items, collect them back from customers and hospitals, and prepare a reconciliation report.

Yes. A customer audit is part of the qualification process, and we conclude a customer-specific quality agreement.

The GDP guideline (2013/C 343/01) applies to the wholesale distribution of medicines, while medical devices are governed by the MDR (EU 2017/745). For devices, lot, serial number and expiry management is decisive; for medicines and combination products, GDP temperature and documentation requirements apply. Our processes are aligned with both.

We go live within 72 hours after the quality agreement is signed and the item master is approved. Before that comes the qualification (on-site audit, documentation review, quality agreement), the timing of which depends on your supplier qualification process.

Yes. As an AEO-certified operator, we clear non-EU devices through customs and put them away directly.
