BIO LOGISTICA
logistics services in Milan
integration, control and operational continuity
capacity and infrastructure
Logistics services are a key enabler of competitiveness for cosmetic, nutraceutical and medical supply chains. In Milan, Bio Logistica provides dedicated facilities, temperature-controlled warehouses and standardised procedures for managing receiving, storage, shipment preparation and deliveries. The approach focuses on process measurability, with indicators for capacity utilisation, throughput times and error rates, ensuring operational continuity and consistent quality. In delivering logistics services, we prioritise integration with the customer’s information systems to ensure a consistent, timely data flow throughout the supply chain.
The logistics platform features production and storage areas organized by product code, batch and destination, with separate routes for incoming and outgoing goods. It includes temperature-controlled warehouses for sensitive products, high-density racking and multiple loading bays for the synchronized handling of vehicles. The availability of nine unloading docks facilitates peak-volume management, reducing waiting times and the risk of congestion. Tracking and access-control systems contribute to the physical security of the premises, while documented procedures govern inventories, periodic checks and batch segregation.
key processes
picking
The logistics services follow an operational chain organized into clear, verifiable stages. Receiving includes quantitative and qualitative checks, with data entry into the management system and the generation of location labels. Storage is organized by product category and environmental conditions, with FEFO/FIFO criteria applied where relevant.
Picking combines single-order or multi-order workflows, with the method (person-to-goods or goods-to-person) selected according to demand profiles and packaging. Order preparation includes document checks, logistics labelling and consolidation onto load units that meet the recipient’s requirements. For B2B flows, we manage appointments, time slots and palletising with standard or customised layouts.
IT integration
To reduce information gaps, our logistics services include IT integration with the customer’s systems (exchange files, APIs or EDI). This enables real-time updates on stock levels, order progress and shipment status.
Traceability is ensured by linking each product to its batch and internal movements; the data feed operational dashboards useful for planning capacity, shifts and loading slots. When required, we generate periodic reports with service KPIs (picking accuracy, punctuality, lead time) and continuous improvement notes.
operational value
Our modular approach allows workflows to be adapted quickly to seasonality or promotional launches, with extended operating windows and planned format changes. Quality is monitored through checklists, internal audits and sampling plans that reduce rework and downtime.
Our logistics services also include collection and delivery for contract processing, facilitating communication between external production and the distribution platform. The goal is to ensure reliable lead times, reduce indirect costs and support business scalability.
warehousing models and solutions
Depending on the demand profile, we offer two main configurations:
- Dedicated warehouse: absolute priority given to process customisation and full application integration; suitable for stable volumes and specific security, layout or service-level requirements.
- Shared warehouse: a balance between flexibility and costs, with resources and equipment shared across multiple orders; ideal for occasional peaks, variable assortments and small batches.
Both models are managed using common traceability, inventory and document-control rules, maintaining consistent quality standards.
Ancillary services and value-added services
To support our logistics services, we offer additional operations to increase speed and go-to-market quality:
- repackaging and micro-assembly on request;
- logistics labelling and code adaptation;
- preparation of countertop/floor-standing displays and promotional bundles;
- weight, dimension and integrity checks before dispatch;
- returns management with goods inspection and restocking where permitted.
These activities integrate into standard workflows without interrupting data visibility or KPI consistency.
