We are pleased to announce that Helmer Scientific medical-grade blood bank, laboratory, and pharmacy refrigerators have been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as meeting new ENERGY STAR® standards for energy efficiency. ENERGY STAR® helps safeguard the environment through promoting superior energy efficiency across a broad range of products. New ENERGY STAR® standards now identify the most efficient laboratory refrigerators that are commonly used across hospitals, clinics, and research institutions to store life-saving blood products, reagents, patient samples, and medications/vaccines.
The EPA recently finalized the first ENERGY STAR® specifications for laboratory refrigerators to help facilities identify products that can reduce energy utilization and life-time costs related to this critical category of equipment. “Being recognized by the EPA as meeting ENERGY STAR® standards for high performance refrigerators is just one example of achieving our company’s commitment to support sustainability and limit environmental impact,” stated Dennis Smith, Vice President, Research and Development, Helmer Scientific. “We are continuing our efforts to commercialize sustainable and innovative solutions to best support our customers and we look forward to having additional products earn the ENERGY STAR® label.”
