No surprise, Maryland ranks among the top ten states for having the best healthcare systems in the United States! Did you know that Maryland is home to about 500 biotechnology companies? One of our customers, a diagnostic testing laboratory, has been part of that ongoing health story for years with their work screening for various infectious diseases and viruses, and The Label Experts have been along for the ride since 2006.
We’ve collaborated on many varieties of lab labels, including color-coded CryoLabel® for their test tubes. These barcode labels are used for tracking samples to screen for;
- Mosquito Borne Diseases
- Flu
- HIV
- COVID-19
As with any lab, they require tracking and documenting with precision to ensure accurate results. Using the right kind of cryogenic label is crucial to their process, and by customizing with color-coding, the chances of human error are greatly reduced.
Benefits of Having an Established Relationship with Your Label Supplier
An additional benefit to having an established relationship with The Label Experts is that when your lab finds itself in a pinch and needs labels yesterday, we’re ready! In this diagnostic lab’s case, this happened at the very beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. Just three days after our own state had gone into lockdown and sent more than half of our staff remote, our main lab contact reached out to us with a rush order for barcode labels to track what they correctly expected to be rapidly increasing samples of patient cases of SARS-CoV-2.
Thanks to our long-term relationship, much of the typical pre-order admin and proofing process was able to be handled quickly. We already knew what cryogenic lab conditions and processes these rush labels would have to stand up to, and had records in place of their lab’s typical variable data formatting. Thanks to our long-term experience working together on both sides, we were able to deliver a considerably large amount of Covid-19 testing labels to our diagnostic lab client in just a week!
Fully Customizable Cryogenic Barcode Labels
Every month, we ship thousands of lab labels to healthcare facilities in Maryland, and the rest of the world. We’ve become a crowd favorite because our cryogenic barcode labels withstand liquid nitrogen temperatures, water baths, and chemicals like IPA and DMSO… more importantly, our innovative CryoLabel® Frost line is designed to stick to frozen tubes and stay stuck through thaw and freeze cycles.
