Blood Centers

MaxPlus Thermal Control Transport Systems

Whether for blood collection, distribution or transfusion services – busy blood centers are faced with complicated logistics processes when it comes to managing outgoing and incoming red cells, whole blood, platelets, plasma or donor specimens.

Designed to optimize logistics and protect blood supplies

Packing blood product properly ensures the appropriate temperature is maintained throughout transport to minimize wastage. This is particularly critical today with fewer donors and increasingly fragile blood supplies. That’s exactly why MaxQ designed its MaxPlus Thermal Control Transport Systems.

Qualified shippers specific to blood center needs

Our range of products are purpose-built and pre-qualified to hold precise temperatures while moving blood product for collection, distribution and transfusion services. The MaxPlus Platelet Shipper, for example, is 40% smaller than current platelet shippers and was designed specifically to maintain temperatures for up to 30 hours during transport.

Standardized packouts and optimum efficiency

Innovative MaxQ cooler designs are ready for your internal validation, making the process much more efficient. Standardized packing protocols simplify staff training and streamline pack-outs. Plus, with no special handling or bench-time conditioning – MaxPlus coolers and shippers can be issued in a matter of seconds, helping you streamline operations and maximize resources.
