The Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility (CRF) in Birmingham has implemented a Brady IP™ Printing System, saving valuable time and creating clear, durable labels which withstand low-temperature sample storage.

Based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, the Wellcome Trust CRF offers an environment for high quality patient-oriented research, carrying out Phase 1 up to Phase 4 clinical trials as well as experimental medicine. Purpose-built consulting rooms and patient areas are complemented by laboratories providing a wide range of analytical techniques and sample processing services.

A Brady IP™ 300 dpi Printer, together with Brady’s CodeSoft™ label software and FreezerBondz™ labels, was chosen as the ideal solution to the CRF’s labelling requirements, as Julie Williams explains: ‘We were very pleased that Brady UK not only gave us a demonstration of the printer we had selected but also enabled us to borrow one for evaluation by our user group. This confirmed that the IP™ Printer is very intuitive and suitable for our multi-user environment where sample labelling is carried out by nursing staff working on clinical trials as well as by technical lab staff.’

Designed for high performance on-demand printing, the Brady IP™ Printer can automatically recognize the label material and ribbon loaded, checking the correct match and monitoring usage.
