Efficient relocation of an international research institute from Hamburg to Zurich with sensitive lab equipment

A renowned research institute decided to relocate from Hamburg to Zurich to benefit from better research collaborations and funding opportunities in Switzerland.

The primary challenge was the safe and undamaged transport of sensitive and expensive laboratory equipment, as well as adhering to strict timelines to ensure the continuity of ongoing research projects.

IPA assembled a specialized team focused on the transport of delicate scientific equipment. Custom packaging solutions and specialized transport containers were developed to protect the equipment during transit. Import and export customs clearance was professionally managed to ensure smooth customs processes. A detailed schedule was created to ensure that the laboratory facilities were ready and fully operational at the new location on time.

The move was completed on schedule, with no damage to the laboratory equipment. The researchers were able to resume their work in Zurich immediately, with no significant interruptions or delays.
