There is an increasing demand for IVF treatments worldwide. This means that the medtech company Vitrolife’s growth journey continues. A key prerequisite for further expansion is continuous, safe and accurate climate monitoring in a wide range of environments.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its inception in 1994 in Gothenburg, Sweden, Vitrolife has developed into an international company that develops and manufactures products used for in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments. In 2011, Vitrolife acquired Igenomix, a leader in reproductive genetic testing mainly for IVF clinics. Together they are now Vitrolife Group, a global leader in reproductive health. Today, the company has manufacturing and laboratory operations in Europe, the United States and Asia. The group employs 1 100 people and is present in nearly 130 markets around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Group management, as well as significant development work and manufacturing, remain in Gothenburg. It produces media, i.e. nutrient solutions that provide embryos with optimal environments during IVF treatments. Other major products are pipettes and aspiration needles of various dimensions used for handling eggs and embryos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We measure quite broadly”<\/strong>
– Our products need to be tested and stored safely, which means that we need to keep a close eye on temperatures in particular,” says Mattias Udd\u00e9n, Head of Technology at Vitrolife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It involves extensive measurements of temperatures in different refrigeration and freezing environments. Furthermore, heating conditions and humidity are monitored in many incubators, as well as temperature levels in clean rooms and storage areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– In other words, we measure quite broadly, says Mattias Udd\u00e9n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To keep track of all climates in critical environments, Udd\u00e9n and his colleagues use the testo Saveris 1<\/a> measurement system. The customized system at Vitrolife consists of about 80 deployed data loggers that continuously deliver data from over a hundred measuring points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
