New Paris-Hong Kong Air Cargo Connection
What's New? UPS Healthcare introduces a direct daily cargo flight between Paris (CDG) and Hong Kong (HKG) to support the booming dental lab industry.
Why It Matters: With the French dental market growing significantly, this new route ensures faster, more flexible, and efficient shipping solutions.

The dental industry is evolving rapidly as demand for personalized and complex dental care grows. To address this need, UPS has introduced a new, dedicated air cargo connection between Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) and Hong Kong International Airport (HKG). This flight path strengthens logistics for dental labs and manufacturers, enabling French dental companies to source critical materials from Hong Kong’s well-developed dental manufacturing and laboratory hubs.
Statistics highlight the urgency of this initiative. The French dental care market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6% until 2030, driven by increased demand for customized implants, fillings, and other specialized products as populations age.1 Concurrently, Hong Kong’s dental lab market is set to expand by 6.3% CAGR over the same period2, making it an essential outsourcing partner for French dental companies seeking efficiency and scalability.2
"For growing markets like France’s dental care industry, our end-to-end logistics solutions ensure seamless, swift transportation of materials," remarked Britta Weber, Vice President, UPS Healthcare Europe. "This combination of innovative offerings and custom-designed supply chains positively impacts not just businesses but also how treatments reach patients—enhancing outcomes, reliability, and care quality."
This new Paris-Hong Kong route provides healthcare clients with greater flexibility and efficiency. These advancements help dental labs, manufacturers, and healthcare providers stay competitive while ensuring patients receive timely, reliable care.
