When the recent flu epidemic was on did you ever consider where all the vaccines were stored? Many vaccines and medicines need to be stored at cool temperatures or they will spoil. This means you need cold storage or mobile cold storage units. An ordinary fridge may not be large enough, so you need to get a specialised cold storage solution.

You can buy or hire pharmaceutical mobile refrigerated warehouse units which are specially kitted out for the storage of high value items such as vaccines, diagnostic kits and blood samples, where strict temperature control is essential and monitoring must available.

These pharmaceutical cold stores will usually have full redundancy on critical features to ensure the products cannot 'go off' by getting too warm. This is done by having two independent refrigeration systems with one providing complete backup to the other. They also have dual electronic temperature recorders to provide full traceability.

Typically they can keep products at any temperature within a temperature range of -35 degrees C to +35 degrees C. They will be fitted with alarm systems to warn of potential problems.

These are mobile cold units, so will be weather proof enabling them to be placed either inside or outside for flexibility. The great advantage of a mobile cold store is that is can be moved, so when the requirement is no longer needed, the unit can be relocated elsewhere, freeing up valuable storage space.

If you hire your cold container then if it is no longer needed it can be returned. Many health organisation hire pharmaceutical mobile cold stores to store their medicines and vaccines to ensure they remain in good condition. They typical size of these cold stores range from 10 foot to 40 foot.
