Being organized in the lab during normal times creates efficiency. In THESE times, though, being organized generates needed productivity.

Our manufacturing site for 4titude products in Wotton, Surrey UK has recently implemented a range of improvements that have increased production capacity whilst supporting a commitment to sustainability.

Going green in your lab is the surest way to save time, energy, and money. Find out how you can create a more sustainable lab and use resources for additional research goals.

With a combined 50 years of experience in cold-storage precision and inventory management procedures, we can evaluate your current situation and help make the future state of your research facility more Zenlike.

Placing a cryogenic sample in dry ice is like dropping an ice cube into boiling water, a temperature differential of around 90°C, coupled with the enhanced convection and conductive when sample tubes are placed directly in contact with dry ice can cause sample temperature to rise quickly. The temperature differential between a cryogenic sample and dry ice is around 90°C.

Good storage practices of biological materials is an essential component of any laboratory. Biological samples often degrade over time when stored at room temperature, but some samples may also lose integrity at low temperatures if subjected to multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

In the cell therapy field, stem cells require a temperature-controlled, cold-chain transport system.

Unlike biopharmaceutical samples, frozen food must adhere to strict regulations for how it is routinely frozen, stored, and shipped.
