Nutraceuticals: Vitamins & Supplements | InTek Intermodal Logistics

Much like pharmaceutical and healthcare logistics, nutraceuticals logistics demands a partner who can handle its specialized nature. Successfully shipping vitamins requires knowing how to tackle a unique set of challenges head-on.

Choosing InTek as your supplement transport company means you can rest assured your specialty cargo - including gummies, tablets, capsules, powders, fortified foods, beverages and balms follows the right packing processes, stays at the right temperature and gets there fast, for the right price.

And you'll get the technology to track it every step of the way. Plus, you'll benefit from added capacity options that intermodal offers.

Temperature-controlled vitamin & supplement shipping services

A wide range of nutraceuticals need temperature-controlled freight shipping to ensure they reach customers fresh and intact - as these vitamin transport can be sensitive to heat or cold.

Discover the ins and outs of temperature-controlled freight shipping, what a reefer is, and the cutting-edge technology powering refrigerated freight services that prevent damage during supplement transport.

Plus learn about the under-utilized temperature-controlled option of intermodal, and the capacity, cost and technology benefits it offers over the more popular refrigerated truckload shipping.

Intermodal nutraceuticals transport

While trucks are the typical go-to for temperature-controlled transport, reefer intermodal containers bring a host of advantages for vitamin logistics. Like traditional intermodal, shippers can expect 10-15% savings over truck. On top of that, they boast two to three times the capacity of refrigerated trailer tanks and come equipped with:

24/7 satellite tracking
Internal temperature monitoring
The capability to adjust container temperatures remotely during transit

Plus, intermodal transport can give your environmental sustainability goals a big boost. It's four times more fuel-efficient, and just one train can replace 280 trucks on the road.

Truckload nutraceuticals transport

Temperature-controlled trucking is the most common method to move sensitive freight. As markets and needs continuously evolve, trust InTek for refrigerated trucking services. Our numerous carrier relationships ensure you'll have reliable truckload and LTL options for your supplement logistics and other heat and cold-sensitive cargo.

Full truckload offers flexibility for temperature-controlled shippers whose lanes are less of a fit for intermodal, who need expedited service or who are diversifying modes.

If the load is smaller but your nutraceuticals freight still requires constant conditions, temperature-controlled LTL transportation options may be a fit - with pooling and consolidation options also a consideration.

Nutraceuticals shipping across the U.S. and Mexico

Moving nutraceuticals within the United States is one thing, but domestic shipping needs also include cross-border origins and destinations in Mexico. If that sounds like an area your business needs covered via intermodal or truck, find the Mexico freight shipping locations that fit your requirements, including but not limited to:

Laredo, TX
Monterrey
Queretaro
Saltillo
