Special Requirements for Refrigerated Trucks in Blood Product Transportation

Do You Need Safe Blood Delivery?

You care about health. People need safe blood for surgeries, sickness, and emergencies. But did you know? Blood is special. Blood must be treated like gold. If it gets too hot or too cold, people can get sick. Sometimes, they can lose their chance for treatment.

At CLW GROUP, we know how to help. We build custom trucks for blood and medical goods. Our refrigerated vehicles keep blood just right! Let's see why this matters and how we keep your blood safe.

Why Temperature Control is Critical for Blood Products

Blood is not just red liquid. There are blood banks and hospitals full of red blood cells, platelets, plasma and other parts. Each part is sensitive!

If blood gets hot or too cold:

• Blood can go bad.
• Some parts stop working.
• It is no longer safe for patients.
• Medical staff must throw it away.

Example: In a big hospital, platelets got too hot by just 3°C for 2 hours in a truck. Thousands of dollars were lost. Most of all, patients waited longer for needed help.

Think about it: One small mistake means someone doesn't get the blood they need. [^1]

Key Temperature Ranges for Different Blood Products

Blood is like a family. Each member likes its own "room temperature"! Here’s a simple chart:

Why is this important?

If your truck cools or heats too much, the blood won't work for the patient. Precise temperature control is a must!

Essential Features of Refrigerated Trucks for Blood Transport

You can't use a plain delivery truck or a regular ice box. You need special cold chain trucks built for the job. At CLW GROUP, here's what we deliver:
