Solar cold chain specialist Dulas has recently secured its biggest ever order, with a total of 780 vaccine refrigerators heading to Nigeria.

The order is for a mix of VC150 (102 litre) and VC225 (184.5 litre) solar direct drive (SDD) refrigerators, with the former also featuring a 43 litre water pack freezer compartment.

Capable of operating in surrounding temperatures between +5°C to +43°C, both models offer exceptional reliability, backed up by 10-year warranties. They also benefit from the Dulas Vaccine Guard system which remotely monitors their performance, sending an SMS and/or email alert if the temperature varies from the specified range.

The Nigerian Ministry of Health chose Dulas from UNICEF’s list of approved suppliers after a competitive tendering process. GAVI’s CCEOP programme provided significant funding towards the overall cost.

Installation in locations across the whole of the country will be carried out by Dulas’s local partner in Nigeria, Fenlab, with the British-made machines arriving in two batches this year and a third one early in 2021.

Dulas MD Ruth Chapman was understandably delighted with the order, commenting: “We are so pleased to have won this contract. The refrigerators we supply are critical in supporting GAVI’s ambition to eradicate diseases through routine vaccination programmes. Our fridges will give local populations across Nigeria access to these vital vaccines. We’re proud of our equipment and are sure that its proven quality and our track record in delivering solar refrigeration to remote and off-grid locations have been key to the Nigerian government choosing Dulas to assist their vaccination programme.”
