B Medical Systems
Saving lives through reliable and innovative technology
Vaccines, biospecimens, pharma preparation, and a wide range of drugs and pharmaceutical products are exceptionally sensitive to temperature, humidity, and other factors. What can we do to stop the billion-dollar losses caused by biologicals being exposed to suboptimal temperatures?
The medical cold chain, the network of medical-grade refrigerators, freezers, and transport solutions designed to always keep biologicals at their intended temperature throughout their distribution process, is the natural solution to this problem. For example, maintaining the cold chain for vaccines or vaccination campaigns that require refrigeration is a major concern in the pharmaceutical industry. Throughout this process, stakeholders at each link in the chain must monitor and maintain the optimum temperature range. Failure to correctly monitor these temperatures, even over brief intervals, may result in a huge waste of money and resources, and vaccines losing their potency.
This is why such a complex and lifesaving distribution process must be incredibly efficient and well-organized, and cold chain manufacturers such as B Medical Systems are rising to the challenge.
B Medical Systems (formerly Dometic/Electrolux) is a global manufacturer and distributor of medical cold chain solutions.
With over 40 years of expertise, the company has developed novel methods to securely and reliably store and transport pharmaceuticals, blood components, laboratory specimens, and vaccines throughout the world. Its dedication to assisting health institutions, governments, and non-governmental organizations has saved innumerable lives while also enabling entire communities to develop and prosper. Mr. Jesal Doshi, the CEO of B Medical Systems India Pvt. Ltd., opines, “As modern medicine becomes more complex and very often requires the use of thermosensitive solutions, B Medical Systems’ medical cold chain equipment provides the peace of mind healthcare professionals need in their day-to-day life.”
THE INSIDE STORY
B Medical Systems was founded in 1979 in Hosingen, Luxembourg, when the WHO approached Electrolux to find a way to properly store and transport its vaccines around the world. The company presently provides over 100 products throughout its three core business portfolios of Medical Refrigeration, Blood Management Solutions, and Vaccine Cold Chain.
Laboratory Refrigerators, Laboratory Freezers, Pharmacy Refrigerators, Ultra-Low Freezers, Plasma Freezers, Contact Shock Freezers, Vaccine Refrigerators (Ice-Lined Refrigerators and Solar Direct Drive Refrigerators), and Transport Boxes are among B Medical Systems’ main products. All products have integrated 24/7 real-time temperature monitoring capabilities that further ensure that these products offer the highest level of safety and reliability.
“Our products are used to always keep life-saving vaccines, pharmaceuticals, samples, and compounds in a safe and reliable manner. With our state-of-the-art products, we ensure that these biologicals and specimens don’t lose their potency due to temperature excursions, thus protecting the health of people all over the world.” adds Mr. Jesal Doshi, CEO of B Medical Systems India Pvt. Ltd.
BECAUSE EVERY LIFE IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT
As the established market leader in the Vaccine Cold Chain for the past 40 years, B Medical Systems has provided equipment to support its partners in vaccinating more than 350 million children across the world. Through its long-lasting relationships with global humanitarian organizations such as UNICEF, the WHO, Gavi, Health Ministries, etc., B Medical Systems has installed over half a million units across 140+ countries around the world for safely storing and transporting vaccines, medicines, blood and other samples.
WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GET GOING
During the COVID-19 pandemic, B Medical Systems has been actively supporting governments worldwide in the establishment of their vaccine responses, by supporting the establishment of a reliable and versatile vaccine cold chain able to meet any storage temperature requirement.
“The demand for our products increased dramatically. We invested extensively in increasing our manufacturing capacity by expanding our production plant in Luxembourg and establishing a new one in India. Furthermore, we implemented a number of initiatives to ensure that supply chain delays wouldn’t affect our production, enabling us to respond to the customer demands in the shortest lead time. We were able to assist COVID-19 immunization efforts all across the world as a result of this, sometimes providing entire countries’ national healthcare services with the medical cold chain solutions they required.” explains the CEO.
UNINTERRUPTED SERVICES IN REMOTE LOCATIONS THAT ARE NOT BACKED BY BASIC AMENITIES:
Keeping vaccines at the proper temperature has always been difficult, but it is even more so in remote regions. These communities can be difficult to reach because they are located far away from larger settlements and cities, perhaps in mountains, jungles, or deserts.
The CEO adds, “We use a variety of methods to ensure that our products reach isolated villages. We’ve delivered vaccines in some of the world’s most inhospitable locations using vehicles, boats, helicopters, and even bicycles. However, getting to these locations isn’t the only issue we’ve had with providing a reliable vaccine cold chain. The most serious issue has been a general absence of a reliable power source. Electricity may be sparse and intermittent, if not completely unavailable. To cater to this problem, we offer Solar Direct Drive (SDD) Refrigerators and Freezers, medical storage equipment that relies on the power of the sun directly harvested by our solar panels.”
CONCLUSION
As governments throughout the globe move on with COVID-19 immunization programs, they continue to rely on companies to provide the solutions, speed and efficiency that they require to guarantee the success of their vaccination campaigns.
B Medical Systems is a key player in these large-scale vaccination efforts as it provides the necessary medical cold chain solutions to guarantee the safety of the thermosensitive vaccines being used. The company offers a multitude of products to ensure that biologicals such as vaccines, medicines, samples such as blood and its components, and chemical compounds are safe throughout all the distribution stages until the last mile.
A MATTER OF PRIDE
“B Medical Systems is one of the first and still very few companies to receive the EU MDR certification for their active refrigeration product lines across its Medical Refrigeration and Blood Management Solutions product lines. We take pride in being one of the few companies in the world to have an end-to-end refrigeration solution which is certified by EU MDR on top of the US FDA, and to also provide Vaccine Cold Chain solutions which are WHO PQS certified.” shares Mr. Jesal Doshi, the CEO of B Medical Systems India Pvt. Ltd.
