Cool running

As the weather heats up, pharmacy fridges have to work harder to maintain their temperature (2-8ºC). Have you checked whether yours are operating as they should?

Now is also a good opportunity to ensure that there is enough capacity for your flu vaccine delivery.

We recommend that you consider whether your surgery's pharmacy fridge needs replacing. Pharmacy fridge sizes range from counter-top to under-bench to large free-standing units. The MHRA recommends never overloading a pharmacy fridge, especially easy during vaccine season, as overloading can compromise the cold-chain.

As a member of the Londonwide Buying Group, you have exclusive access to the best prices available on pharmacy fridges with quick delivery and the option of removing your old fridge.
