Bringing the Helapet BloodPorter® range to BBTS 2012

Attending the annual British Blood Transfusion Society (BBTS) conference in Harrogate, Helapet had the opportunity to present and promote our new range of BloodPorter® cold-chain carrying systems.

Attended by Chris Steng, Robert Collins and our new Cold-Chain specialist Agata Duliniec, the Blood Porter® range proved to greatly support the external/internal transportation of red blood cells and platelets between hospitals, blood-banks and storage sites.

Generating significant interest from the array of specialists and companies involved in blood transfusion, logistics and storage, our new Timestrip MinusTM +2°C cold-chain indicator also proved a big hit. Offering users the opportunity to audit their cold chain processes with an easy-to-use, disposable device, the Timestrip MinusTM accurately highlights temperature breaches below +2°C during transit operations.
