“We are thus reducing the workload on the highly qualified laboratory staff who would otherwise have to waste time preparing transportation materials; this time could be put to much better use with other tasks,” says Debatin CEO Thomas Rose, explaining the most recent product innovation from the packaging specialists based in southern Germany.
The benefits of the DEBAMED® Speci-Sorb product features are obvious:
- More safety and peace of mind, because nothing can be forgotten when transporting samples in accordance with packaging instruction P650 and the ADR requirements for “exempt human specimens” and “exempt animal specimens”
- More hygiene to protect your laboratory and logistics staff, because nothing can leak out any more
- More financial savings, because one step in the sample transportation process is no longer necessary
- More sustainable sample transportation, because the majority of the packaging goes into recycling
- More efficiency during transportation, due to a smaller volume
Also, thanks to the coating in the flexible secondary packaging, the shipment volume is reduced when transporting biological samples. “Particularly in the light of increased use of drones in the medical logistics sector, this is an extremely important factor,” explains Thomas Rose. In the context of drone transportation, Anton Debatin GmbH is working closely with German Copters DLS GmbH, whose CEO, Holger Schulze, gave DEBATIN a shout-out in an interview: “The medical logistics chain involves transporting dangerous goods. We’ve been working with a specialist in this sector, Bruchsal-based Anton Debatin, for over a year to develop solutions tailored to drone transportation. I can confidently say that we have now got the safest solution, probably in the world, for transporting dangerous substances by drone.”
