Calibration
& Testing Services

Why is calibration important for cold chain equipment?

Calibration ensures instruments deliver accurate readings, helping maintain product integrity, meet industry standards, and avoid costly spoilage during storage or transport.

What equipment does Scalesius calibrate and test?

We handle calibration for refrigerators, freezers, data loggers, thermometers, and other critical cold chain instruments used in healthcare, logistics, and food sectors.

How often should calibration be performed?

Calibration frequency depends on equipment use and regulatory needs, but annual checks are recommended for most cold chain devices to maintain reliability and compliance.

How does Scalesius conduct calibration?

We use traceable standards and certified procedures to measure, adjust, and document performance, ensuring equipment accuracy and compliance with international quality guidelines.

Temperature & Humidity Mapping

What is temperature and humidity mapping?

It’s a study of environmental variations across storage areas, ensuring controlled zones meet regulatory requirements and protect temperature sensitive products throughout their lifecycle.

Where is mapping required in the cold chain?

Mapping is essential in warehouses, refrigerators, freezers, and transport vehicles to confirm even distribution of temperature and humidity for product safety and compliance.

Why should businesses perform mapping studies?

Mapping identifies hotspots, airflow issues, and environmental inconsistencies, helping companies validate storage conditions, reduce risks, and maintain compliance with Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards.

How often should mapping be done?

Ideally once every three years, or whenever storage layout, equipment, or environmental conditions change significantly, to keep validation records current and trustworthy.

Compliance Training Workshops

What topics are covered in compliance training workshops?

Workshops include Good Distribution Practice, calibration basics, audit readiness, data integrity, and practical methods to maintain compliance in daily cold chain operations.

Who should attend these training workshops?

Professionals from logistics, quality assurance, warehousing, pharmaceuticals, and food safety teams benefit most, gaining updated knowledge to meet regulations and industry expectations effectively.

How do workshops support regulatory compliance?

They equip teams with practical tools, updated guidelines, and hands-on learning that strengthen compliance culture, reduce errors, and enhance audit preparedness in organizations.

Can workshops be customized for companies?
