UKAS Accredited Calibration
Calibration ensures that any medical equipment, such as fridges and freezers, maintains the correct temperature to safely store medicines, vaccines, blood products and other sensitive supplies. If temperatures fluctuate outside the required range, these products can become ineffective or unsafe, putting patient health at risk. Regular calibration ensures that healthcare providers can rely on their equipment to function correctly and safely.
As a UKAS accredited temperature calibration laboratory, Labcold provides reliable on-site calibration services to ensure your equipment meets the highest standards of accuracy and compliance.
Our fully trained service engineers use UKAS accredited procedures to calibrate both Labcold and non-Labcold equipment, helping to extend product lifespan, reduce operational downtime, and support consistent performance across your operations.
Regulated for Safe Storage
Whether it's pharmacy refrigeration, medical fridges or blood fridges, precise temperature regulation is advised to ensure the products within them are safely stored. Medical fridge temperatures are regulated and controlled to ensure that drugs are stored safely at the correct temperature according to manufacturers’ recommendations.
The NHS Green Book 2013 requires your medical fridge to store medicines and vaccines at a temperature of between +2°c to +8°C. However, over time measuring instruments can drift resulting in the accuracy of the equipment falling outside acceptable levels therefore medical refrigerators require annual calibration.
A UKAS accredited calibration provides added reassurance in the validity of results due to the following:
- Every calibration follows accredited methods that are monitored through a strict quality management system
- Our engineers receive ongoing specialist training.
- Our processes and technical capabilities are regularly assessed by UKAS assessors.
- We provide traceable, verifiable and internationally recognised calibration results.
