Vaccines can be destroyed or damaged easily if they are frozen or become too hot. Freezing is the most common cause of vaccine damage and loss, with cold-sensitive vaccines losing potency upon reaching 0° C. It can be expensive and time-consuming to prevent adverse vaccine storage events and assess breaches, especially if your organisation is relying on a domestic refrigerator. ColdGuard's automated monitoring service allows you to ensure the temperature integrity of your fridge, fulfill your regulatory obligations and reduce stock loss simply and economically. |
ColdGuard offers: |

ColdGuard offers 24/7 web access to real-time temperature data, which can be viewed in graphic form at the touch of a button. Our detailed reports make it easy to assess your performance and prove your compliance with rigorous vaccine storage standards.
ColdGuard combines on-site alarms with remote alerts using SMS and e-mail. This gives you the power to take action immediately, before sensitive vaccines are damaged by temperature excursions or power failures.
No more missed data checks, no more "guestimates": your data is recorded accurately with ColdGuard. You can assess the status of different areas within a refrigeration unit with ease, as our service can monitor multiple temperature sensors. And breakdowns in the cold chain process can be pinpointed with ColdGuard's second-by-second data collection.
Save on IT, administration and training costs. Our automated system means you and your staff no longer have to spend time on manual logging, data entry, routine data-logger checks, software training and hardware installation. We install and maintain the monitoring units and provide access to your information through our web servers.
Other monitoring systems are modular in design, with separate charges for each part of the package. Once you've paid for monitoring units, proprietary software and network fees, the ongoing costs can be substantial. With ColdGuard, one low monthly fee covers the whole service.
As we provide you with a service, rather than a product for sale, your business accrues the tax advantage immediately. The ColdGuard fee is fully deductible in the same financial year as the expense is incurred.
Each ColdGuard user has their own password. ColdGuard provides safe off site data storage using redundant servers. Coldguard features end to end encryption to ensure that your data is kept safe from unathorised access.
