at the Helapet stand

For the second year running, Helapet were pleased to be showcasing some of our top products at the Clinical Pharmacy Congress 2013 in London. With a higher delegate level this year and a terrific line-up of interesting lectures, we yet again enjoyed a great two days of meeting new and familiar faces.

Showcasing our new range of West Pharma products, our sterile 20mm Vial Adapters and the highly innovative Vial2Bag IV transfer system proved a big hit. Our friendly team of experts were delighted to receive plenty of positive feedback from a substantial range of pharmacy professionals at our stand.
 
Helapet would like to thank the organisers for a successful 2nd year. If you are interested in knowing where we will be exhibiting for the rest of 2013, please visit our news page or contact us free on 0800 0328 428.

Bringing the Helapet BloodPorter® range to BBTS 2012

Attending the annual British Blood Transfusion Society (BBTS) conference in Harrogate, Helapet had the opportunity to present and promote our new range of BloodPorter® cold-chain carrying systems.

Attended by Chris Steng, Robert Collins and our new Cold-Chain specialist Agata Duliniec, the Blood Porter® range proved to greatly support the external/internal transportation of red blood cells and platelets between hospitals, blood-banks and storage sites.

Generating significant interest from the array of specialists and companies involved in blood transfusion, logistics and storage, our new Timestrip Minus^TM +2°C cold-chain indicator also proved a big hit. Offering users the opportunity to audit their cold chain processes with an easy-to-use, disposable device, the Timestrip Minus^TM accurately highlights temperature breaches below +2°C during transit operations.
