Appleton Woods steps up to the challenge of Covid-19

Appleton Woods first priority in the fight against Covid-19 is to ensure that healthcare workers have access to the equipment and consumables they need in the shortest timescales possible.

In March, Appleton Woods was contacted by Health Services Laboratories & The Doctors Laboratory, for assistance in the purchase of Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinets for several of their sites. Working in partnership with our key suppliers Haier Biomedical and Faster Air we have helped with the supply of eighteen of these Cabinets, which will be delivered and installed to various sites across the UK over the coming weeks.

Alena Zinkovskaya, Haier Biomedical, oversaw the installation of the donated Cabinet.

Haier Biomedical and Appleton Woods also worked together to donate a cabinet to The Ramsay Rivers Hospital, Sawbridgeworth – for more details please click here.

“Health Services Laboratories & The Doctors Laboratory are working closely with the NHS, Public Health England and other organisations to ramp up testing for COVID-19 in extremely tight timescales,” said Amar Pabari, Head of Group Laboratory Services. ”Appleton Woods and Haier Biomedical UK have provided an amazing response to our urgent needs with multiple safety cabinet installations, we thank both teams and management for their support and it is good to see suppliers such as Appleton Woods and Haier Biomedical react to customer needs, we look forward to future partnerships on the back of the support we have received.”
