Is every medical shipment a life or death situation?

While ShipCritical does do a lot of transportation in instances where a life hangs in the balance, this is not always the case.  Some materials are simply being shipped to research institutions, but the samples needed require very specific environmental conditions during transport.  In other instances, we provide transportation for trade show materials and other kinds of business meetings where reliable acquisition of needed biomaterial is of primary importance.

How can I be assured that ShipCritical is a reliable company?

ShipCritical not only has years of successful experience in transporting vital materials and countless companies who rely on our dedicated service, but we are also a charter affiliate member of the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB).  ShipCritical is the only tissue shipment company that is part of the organization, which is a testiment to the professionalism and quality of our transportation staff.
