September 2017.<\/strong> va-Q-tec AG (ISIN DE0006636681 \/ WKN 663668), a technologically leading provider of highly efficient products and solutions in the area of thermal insulation and cold chain logistics, reports significant progress in the development of the service business comprising global temperature-sensitive transportation for the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.<\/p>\n<p>The services of va-Q-tec (&#8220;Serviced Rental&#8221;) enable customers to operate cold chains worldwide that are not only secure but also efficient in terms of cost and energy. For this purpose, va-Q-tec offers and maintains a fleet of rental containers (&#8220;va-Q-tainers&#8221;) that are in demand particularly from pharmaceutical and biotech customers. Since 2015, the Group has also been offering a rental business for its high-performance thermal transportation boxes. Through optimally integrating high-performance insulation with vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) and the storage of thermal energy by means of phase change materials (PCMs), the packaging systems of va-Q-tec hold temperatures constant between 24 and 200 hours.<\/p>\n<p><b>Container rental<\/b><br \/>\nThe rental business with air freight containers grew by EUR 2.0 million in the first half of 2017, from EUR 4.9 million in the previous year to EUR 6.9 million (+41%). With two of the largest European pharmaceuticals manufacturers as well as two large biotech companies, including one from the APAC region and one from the USA, va-Q-tec has succeeded in acquiring further globally operating customers. Business with already existing clients also remained on its positive track, reporting continuous volume growth. Overall, the number of commercial routes has increased by 125 within a year to reach 300 as of the end of the first half of 2017. Some of these routes have not yet reached their full revenue volume and consequently still bear further growth potential. Above and beyond this, numerous other customers have routes in earlier phases of the demanding qualification process. The growth targets in container rental for 2017 are also linked to the further development of such customers in advanced stages of this process.<\/p>\n<p>Other network stations that have been opened during the current year in Japan, India, Australia and Italy bolster the presence of va-Q-tec in the APAC region as well as Southern Europe and the availability of services in the markets situated there. Customers can now utilise a total of 25 network stations worldwide. The rental container fleet grew by more than 200 units in the first half of 2017, with a further 250 planned for the second half of the year. With more than 1,200 passively temperature controlled containers, va-Q-tec thereby already commands the largest fleet of this type today and the second largest of any type at all in the market. These measures form the basis for the further global growth of va-Q-tec.<\/p>\n<p>During the first half of 2017 va-Q-tec has also added to its partner network of airlines, freight forwarding companies and other logistics partners. Extensive partnerships were arranged with additional airlines such as Emirates SkyCargo, TAP Cargo and Egyptair Cargo, for instance. Such partnerships further enhance the availability of va-Q-tec rental containers for pharmaceuticals customers, especially in Asia, Latin America and the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p><b>Box rental<\/b><br \/>\nRevenues generated by the business for the rental of small boxes, which is still very young and is operated not only in continental fleets but also in domestic fleets (the &#8220;last mile to the pharmacy&#8221;), expanded by more than 100% overall during the first half of 2017 from EUR 0.8 million to EUR 1.7 million. The continental business, currently operated largely from Dublin, was further expanded in this context. Especially for the optimised management of box fleets, va-Q-tec has developed its own software and tested it at the pilot hub in W\u00fcrzburg with smaller volumes. In the domestic fleet area, service revenues from the partnership with the Swiss Post also reported continuous growth.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Joachim Kuhn, CEO der va-Q-tec, comments on the service business for the global pharmaceuticals and biotech industries:&nbsp;<i>&#8220;With our rental solutions in the box and container area, we see ourselves as offering a disruptive technology at a very attractive price. We are pleased that our intensive development work is increasingly paying off. &#8220;Serviced Rental&#8221; is of the greatest strategic importance for va-Q-tec. We see ourselves on a massive growth path in this context &#8211; an appraisal that also underscores the enthusiasm of both new and existing customers for our passive systems. Overall, we thereby aim to revolutionise cold chain logistics, starting with the pharmaceuticals cold chain. Finally, the regulatory influence to guarantee secure cold chains is growing, and not only in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>+++END+++<br \/>\nIR contact<\/b><br \/>\nva-Q-tec AG<br \/>\nFelix Rau<br \/>\nTelephone: +49 931 35942 &#8211; 2973<br \/>\nEmail:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:Felix.Rau@va-Q-tec.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Felix.Rau@va-Q-tec.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>cometis AG<br \/>\nClaudius Krause<br \/>\nTelephone: +49 611 &#8211; 20 585 5-28<br \/>\neMail: krause@dev.cometis.de<\/p>\n<p><b>About va-Q-tec<\/b><br \/>\nva-Q-tec is a leading supplier of high-performance products and solutions in thermal insulation and cold chain logistics.

Die va-Q-tec AG (ISIN DE0006636681 \/ WKN 663668), ein technologisch f\u00fchrender Anbieter hocheffizienter Produkte und L\u00f6sungen im Bereich der thermischen Isolation und K\u00fchlkettenlogistik, meldet deutliche Fortschritte in der Entwicklung des Service-Gesch\u00e4fts f\u00fcr globale temperatursensitive Transporte der Pharma- und Biotech-Industrie.\r\n\r\nDie Dienstleistungen von va-Q-tec (\u201eServiced Rental\u201c) erm\u00f6glichen Kunden den Betrieb von sicheren sowie kosten- und energieeffizienten K\u00fchlketten weltweit. va-Q-tec bietet und unterh\u00e4lt hierf\u00fcr eine Flotte von Mietcontainern (\u201eva-Q-tainer\u201c), die insbesondere von Pharma- und Biotechkunden nachgefragt werden. Seit 2015 betreibt der Konzern zus\u00e4tzlich ein Mietgesch\u00e4ft f\u00fcr seine Hochleistungs-Thermo-Transportboxen. Durch die optimale Integration von Hochleistungs-Isolierung mit Vakuumisolationspaneelen (VIPs) und der Speicherung von thermischer Energie mittels thermischer Energiespeicherkomponenten (Phase Change Materials \u201ePCMs\u201c) halten die Verpackungssysteme von va-Q-tec konstante Temperaturen \u00fcber 24 bis 200 Stunden.\r\n\r\nContainer Rental\r\nDas Vermiet-Gesch\u00e4ft mit Luftfrachtcontainern wuchs im 1. Halbjahr 2017 im Vergleich zum Vorjahreszeitraum von 4,9 Mio. EUR um 2,0 Mio. EUR auf 6,9 Mio. EUR (+41%). Mit zwei der gr\u00f6\u00dften europ\u00e4ischen Pharma-Hersteller sowie zwei gro\u00dfen Biotech-Unternehmen, davon einem aus der APAC-Region und einem aus den USA, gelang es va-Q-tec, weitere global agierende Kunden zu gewinnen. Auch das Gesch\u00e4ft mit bereits bestehenden Kunden entwickelte sich weiter positiv und mit kontinuierlich wachsenden Volumina. Insgesamt stieg die Anzahl an kommerziellen Routen binnen eines Jahres um 125 auf 300 zum Ende des ersten Halbjahres 2017. Einige dieser Routen haben ihr volles Umsatzvolumen noch nicht erreicht und bergen daher noch weiteres Wachstumspotential. Dar\u00fcber hinaus befinden sich zahlreiche weitere Kunden mit Routen in fr\u00fcheren Phasen des anspruchsvollen Qualifizierungsprozesses. Die Wachstumsziele im Container Rental f\u00fcr 2017 sind auch mit der Weiterentwicklung solcher Kunden in fortgeschrittene Stadien dieses Prozesses verkn\u00fcpft.\r\n\r\nWeitere im laufenden Jahr er\u00f6ffnete Netzwerkstationen in Japan, Indien, Australien und Italien st\u00e4rken die Pr\u00e4senz der va-Q-tec in der APAC-Region sowie S\u00fcdeuropa und die Verf\u00fcgbarkeit der Services in den dortigen M\u00e4rkten. Insgesamt k\u00f6nnen Kunden nun weltweit 25 Netzwerkstationen nutzen. Die Flotte von Mietcontainern wuchs im 1. Halbjahr 2017 um \u00fcber 200 St\u00fcck, weitere 250 sind f\u00fcr das zweite Halbjahr geplant. Mit \u00fcber 1.200 passiv temperierten Container hat va-Q-tec damit bereits heute die gr\u00f6\u00dfte Flotte dieser Art und die zweitgr\u00f6\u00dfte \u00fcberhaupt im Markt. Diese Ma\u00dfnahmen bilden die Grundlage f\u00fcr weiteres globales Wachstum der va-Q-tec.\r\n\r\nDar\u00fcber hinaus hat va-Q-tec im 1. Halbjahr 2017 das Partnernetzwerk aus Airlines, Spediteuren und weiteren Logistikpartnern erg\u00e4nzt. So wurden mit zus\u00e4tzlichen Airlines wie Emirates SkyCargo, TAP Cargo und Egyptair Cargo umfangreiche Partnerschaften geschlossen. Insbesondere in Asien, Lateinamerika und dem Nahen Osten erh\u00f6hen diese Partnerschaften die Verf\u00fcgbarkeit von va-Q-tec Mietcontainern f\u00fcr Pharma-Kunden weiter.\r\n\r\nBox Rental\r\nDie Ums\u00e4tze mit dem noch sehr jungen Vermiet-Gesch\u00e4ft kleiner Boxen, die zum einen in kontinentalen Flotten und zum anderen in Inlands-Flotten (letzte Meile zur Apotheke) betrieben werden, stiegen im 1. Halbjahr 2017 insgesamt von 0,8 Mio. EUR um mehr als 100% auf 1,7 Mio. EUR. Das kontinentale Gesch\u00e4ft, gegenw\u00e4rtig weitgehend aus Dublin betrieben, konnte dabei weiter ausgeweitet werden. Speziell f\u00fcr die optimierte Steuerung von Boxenflotten hat va-Q-tec eine Software selbst entwickelt und am Pilot Hub in W\u00fcrzburg mit kleineren Volumina erprobt. Im Bereich der Domestic-Flotten steigt der Service-Umsatz aus der Partnerschaft mit der Schweizerischen Post ebenfalls kontinuierlich.\r\n\r\nDr. Joachim Kuhn, CEO der va-Q-tec, kommentiert das Service-Gesch\u00e4ft f\u00fcr die globale Pharma- und Biotechindustrie: \u201eAus unserer Sicht bieten wir den Kunden mit den Mietl\u00f6sungen im Boxen- und Containerbereich eine disruptive Technologie zu einem sehr attraktiven Preis. Wir freuen uns, dass sich die intensive Entwicklungsarbeit mehr und mehr auszahlt. Das ,Serviced Rental\u2018 ist f\u00fcr va-Q-tec von h\u00f6chster strategischer Bedeutung. Wir sehen uns hier auf einem enormen Wachstumspfad. Diese Einsch\u00e4tzung unterstreicht auch die Begeisterung der neuen und bestehenden Kunden f\u00fcr unsere passiven Systeme. Insgesamt wollen wir so die K\u00fchlkettenlogistik, beginnend mit der Pharmak\u00fchlkette, revolutionieren. Schlie\u00dflich w\u00e4chst der regulatorische Einfluss, sichere K\u00fchlketten zu gew\u00e4hrleisten, nicht nur in der Pharma- und Biotech-Industrie.\u201c\r\n\r\n+++ENDE+++\r\nIR Kontakt\r\nva-Q-tec AG\r\nFelix Rau\r\nTelephone: +49 931 35942 - 2973\r\nEmail: Felix.Rau@va-Q-tec.com\r\n\r\ncometis AG\r\nClaudius Krause\r\nTelefon: +49 611 - 20 585 5-28\r\neMail: krause@dev.cometis.de\r\n\r\n\u00dcber va-Q-tec\r\nva-Q-tec ist ein f\u00fchrender Anbieter von Hochleistungs-Produkten und L\u00f6sungen im Bereich der thermischen Isolation und der K\u00fchlkettenlogistik.
