Client Needs & Relationship
Astoriom, a global provider of stability and biorepository storage, operates facilities throughout the U.S. and Europe, supporting more than 20 industries. At the RTP location, the team faced challenges with an aging monitoring system that relied on paper records, lacked scalability, and offered no remote access. To maintain compliance and ensure client confidence, they required a modern, fully integrated solution.
Rees Scientific’s Solution
Astoriom selected the Rees Environmental Monitoring System for its versatility and industry reputation. The system now monitors freezers, room environments, generator ATS switches, door activity, and oxygen levels in LN₂ rooms, all backed by a failover node for uninterrupted oversight. With electronic records, remote access, and proactive alarms, Rees provided a modern, scalable solution that reduced administrative burden and strengthened compliance.
Results of the System
At the RTP site, the Rees system streamlined operations by automating monitoring, eliminating paper records, and delivering real-time visibility. Staff now respond quickly to events such as power interruptions or open doors, while clients gain assurance through greater transparency and strengthened compliance. With preventive monitoring and built-in failover protection, Astoriom is equipped to safeguard critical samples and sustain operational efficiency.
