Controlled Storage and Shipment

Recognising that the quality, safety, efficacy and yields of plasma and plasma derivatives are dependent on the integrity of the temperature chain, Octapharma has established the following:
  • Controlled temperature storage of source plasma and finished products, with continuous, validated temperature monitoring
  • In case of power loss, all freezers / cold rooms have an emergency back-up system
  • Transport by special Octapharma chilled vans that guarantee temperature control (for finished products - this is applicable for select destinations.)
  • All incoming plasma and finished products are transported with computerised temperature data loggers
