"Testing is likely going to remain key while living alongside Covid-19. Quick results not only provide peace of mind, but also allow for some continuation of business, education and even the arts."
Shiraz Sidat, Operations Manager
Leicestershire-based sameday courier Speedel has launched a Covid Test Results Courier service designed to provide rapid delivery of coronavirus test kits to the laboratory. While the service can be used by anyone, it's particularly targeted towards businesses and organisations who require mass testing for on-site personnel. The rapid service will support businesses by allowing individuals to receive their test results as quickly as possible, smoothing out any shipping delays that may otherwise cause hold ups.
Film, media and production companies have already made use of the service, with extensive coronavirus testing now an important part of their wider safety measures to continue operations. Speedel is supporting on-site medics who carry out tests on staff, before sending the kits via a courier for analysis. Sporting organisations, educational institutions, corporate organisations with staff that cannot work from home, and individuals needing to travel urgently, will all require rapid test results so can benefit from the Covid Test Results Courier service.
In addition to delivering test kits to the laboratory, Speedel will also provide test delivery services for those companies who produce the PCR and lateral flow tests. The company already provides extensive services to the medical and healthcare industry, and is listed in the Covid-19 Approved Suppliers Catalogue issued by the government last year.
The service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the test kits can be collected within the hour and delivered to a nominated laboratory. Kits are fully traceable via the Speedel's GPS tracking facility and couriers operate with appropriate PPE and to well-versed Covid-secure measures. Instant proof of delivery confirmations are also sent electronically, providing further peace of mind.
