Biological samples need to be stored and shipped in temperature-controlled conditions. With a short-shelf life, any compromise to the quality of the samples can set a trial back by months - or even years.
Industry-leading cold-chain technology and years of healthcare shipping expertise mean we can manage samples of all temperature ranges, and handle the entire process, from packaging to paperwork. Real-time tracking and sensor technology allow us to monitor exact location and temperature conditions. A dedicated team monitors shipments 24-7, with predictive technology in place to map out contingencies in case of any unexpected disruption.
