P620 Biobox

Tempack Biobox is our ready-to-go package for the transportation of Class 6.2 infectious or potentially infectious biological samples — UN2814 and UN2900 — at environmental temperatures.

Compliant with the regulations for P620 category A, the Biobox is supplied assembled and ready for immediate use. There’s no need for any supplementary packaging; just place your biological sample inside and you’re good to go.

Biobox has all the external and internal components required for this class of biological and infectious sample transportation. It is a complete kit, conceived to ship these temperature-sensitive products within protocols and always in compliance with prevailing regulations in order to comfortably preserve their integrity.

The P620 Biobox comprises up to five core elements which each play their part in the environmental temperature transport of biological materials, samples for analysis, organ samples, blood and tissues.

The rigid, micro-corrugated exterior packaging protects secondary and primary containers from possible transit damage. It has a damp-repellent treatment and comes with mandatory printed indications for this category as well as an integrated document carrier.

The outer box houses a secondary hermetic container, made of polypropylene, which is designed to hold one or several primary containers. There are 0.25 litres and 1.8 litre versions, both of which should be sterilised in autoclave at 121°C. The seal and lid for the different versions should not be sterilised but instead replaced after every third use.

Biobox also features a micro-corrugated cardboard separator that has a stabilising effect, keeping the secondary container in its correct position and preventing movement in the event of any impact. An absorbent tissue layer and a bubble wrap paper strip for the 1.8 litre version complete the kit.

The P620 Biobox is a UN-approved product, designed in accordance with P620 instruction on packaging but also with the different prevailing international transport regulations for air, sea, road and rail.
