Reliable Cold Storage Powering Healthcare Across Sub-Saharan Africa
Inqaba Biotec partners with Coolfinity to deliver trusted laboratory refrigeration solutions in challenging power environments. Together, we’re keeping cold chains unbroken and lives protected.
Bringing Reliable Cooling to Laboratories and Health Facilities
Since 2021, Inqaba Biotec has distributed Coolfinity’s IceVolt 300P refrigerators across Sub-Saharan Africa, focusing on dependable storage of temperature-sensitive laboratory products in power-challenged regions.
Key Metrics:
- Ongoing cooperation since 2021
- IceVolt 300P units in use
- Focus on South Africa, Nigeria, and other Sub-Saharan countries
- Serving research laboratories and healthcare facilities
“I can trust the technology”
Power outages and voltage fluctuations put vital medical products at constant risk. Healthcare labs and clinics served by Inqaba Biotec faced frequent temperature excursions that threatened lab reagents and research integrity.
This leaves healthcare providers and researchers to address these challenges:
- Increased operational complexity for labs and healthcare facilities
- Risk of losing critical lab reagents and biological samples, jeopardizing research outcomes
- Traditional refrigeration often unreliable under unstable power conditions, risking sample integrity
The cold chain is pushed to its limits—calling for a technology-driven solution that delivers unwavering reliability and protects lives.
IceVolt 300P — Built for Power Instability and Performance
What We Delivered
Coolfinity’s IceVolt 300P lab refrigerators feature patented ice-bank thermal battery technology that maintains steady 2–8°C temperatures during power cuts and voltage dips. A Remote Temperature Monitoring Device (RTMD) in each refrigerator enables constant, remote monitoring of refrigerators with integrated voltage stabilization and temperature backup ensure cold chain integrity under any circumstance.
How We Delivered
