Cloud LoginArrowsmith & Grant Refrigeration are working closely with SATO to provide a complete RFID tracking system for all of your blood and blood products.
Our fridge shelving can be upgraded to incorporate a RFID Antenna which tracks the movement of all units every time they are placed into or removed from the fridge. Do away with your manual blood fridge registers (which are notoriously hard to manage) and embrace RFID technology.
Unlike other types of RFID technologies, PJM RFID is entirely unaffected by blood which makes it ideal for tracking of blood. PJM RFID provides high speed, reliability of operation and 100% accuracy for blood tracking.
SATO VICINITY’s industry leading RFID Tunnel and Fridge readers provide reliable and 100% accurate tracking of blood supply chain and management of blood inventory.
Key Benefits
Reduced blood product wastage

- By having full visibility of cold chain compliance within blood processing centers, blood banks and hospital wards, unnecessary disposal of units can be dramatically reduced or eliminated
- Identify potential for wastage before it is too late. If blood has not arrived at its destination in a timely manner, an alert can be activated
