The problem

What goes wrong today

  • 01

    Blood products have tight temperature windows and short shelf lives, and emergencies rarely happen in office hours.

  • 02

    Hospitals and blood banks often rely on whoever is free, with no tracking and no record of the cold chain.

  • 03

    Organ and tissue movements need a dedicated, escorted vehicle and a transport record the tissue bank can file.

What we do

How Hazchem fixes it

  • Scheduled blood-product runs between blood banks and hospitals in validated passive boxes.
  • Emergency blood STAT with 24/7 activation through Hazchem Control.
  • Dedicated, escorted organ, tissue and bone-marrow movements, with air legs arranged where distance demands it.
  • Night and weekend standby retainers: a driver and vehicle on call for your facility.

How it works

Four steps, one record.

  1. Step 01

    Activate

    Call Control or press STAT in Hazchem Business. A crew is assigned immediately.

  2. Step 02

    Pack and seal

    Product is packed by the issuing bank, then sealed and scanned by the crew.

  3. Step 03

    Run direct

    No other stops. The SLA clock and live position are visible to both ends.

  4. Step 04

    Hand over

    Signed handover at the receiving desk, with the full trace attached to the job.

Compliance handling

Done properly, and documented.

Rules on every job
  • Carriers moving blood or tissue in the usual course of business are exempt from tissue-bank authorisation; our transport record supports the bank's own file.
  • Passive boxes and loggers matched to the product's range (2-10 C for red cells, 20-24 C for platelets).
  • Escort or second crew member available for long or critical movements.
