medlog – The specialist for vaccine logistics and active
cold-chain transportation
Vaccine logistics
Handling modern vaccines is a very sensitive matter. Storage, packaging and transportation demand incredibly high standards of modern logistics service provision. These are guarantees that medlog can make.
Some vaccines must be stored at a constant temperature of minus 70 degrees Celsius until shortly before they are injected. medlog is equipped with ULT freezers to ensure this particular specification is met with absolute professionalism.
Depending on the vaccine, storage and transportation must be done at
- -80°C in ULT freezers
- -20°C in household standard freezers
- +2 to +8°C in coolers
Clinics and vaccination centres only have limited capacities for storing and injecting the necessary amounts of vaccine. medlog refrigeration depots allow smaller bottles of vaccine for booster jabs to be provided precisely when and where they are required.
