The Guardian Timeline
Follow your samples through every step of our meticulously designed transport protocol. Complete transparency from consultation to delivery.
Consultation & Custom Route Audit
We analyze clinic hours, airline schedules, and customs requirements for your specific route (e.g., US to UK or Nigeria). You receive a transparent, all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees.
We coordinate with both labs before you ever sign a contract.
Documentation & HFEA/Customs Clearance
We handle the paperwork "gatekeepers." From HFEA import certificates in the UK to pre-clearance with Nigerian Customs, we ensure your samples aren't delayed at the border.
Our regulatory team manages the clinic-to-clinic documentation chain.
The 24-Hour "Cold-Chain" Prep
Every dewar undergoes a 24-hour Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) saturation protocol. We verify weight and temperature stability before the courier even leaves for pickup.
Using MVE Chart XC 20/3V High-Capacity Vapor Shippers.
Dual-Verification Lab Pickup
Our courier meets your embryologist. We verify patient IDs, straw counts, and apply a tamper-evident seal. The Chain of Custody (CoC) starts the second the dewar is in our hands.
Identity verification with your embryologist at the lab door.
The "In-Cabin" Transit (No X-Rays)
Your samples never enter a cargo hold or an X-ray machine. Our courier carries the dewar into the aircraft cabin. We present our TSA/ICAO Declaration Letter to ensure a 100% manual hand-inspection at every checkpoint.
100% X-Ray Free. Always within 2 meters of your courier.
Certified Delivery & Temperature Report
We hand-deliver the dewar to the receiving embryologist. We provide a digital temperature log graph proving your samples stayed at -196°C for every second of the journey.
