FingerPrint Data Systems UK Ltd has been appointed as the UK distributor for the UK healthcare and pharmaceutical sector for Timestrip Plc, the UK-based smart label company.

Timestrips time-and temperature-sensitive smart labels visually monitor elapsed time from minutes to over a year on any product. They are becoming increasingly popular among a wide range of industry sectors to track time after opening of foods, medicines / antibiotics since they adhere to any package – whether at room temperature or frozen – delivering clear, visual monitoring of remaining product shelf life.

Commenting on the announcement, Graham Osborn, Technical Director at FingerPrint Data Systems UK Ltd said “Both the patented technology and range of Timestrips available have many applications in the healthcare market, providing a simple and effective means of enhancing patient safety.  As a company we focus on technologies that can demonstrate true added value to our customers and Timestrips are a prime example of this.

Our primary areas of focus for deployment of the Timestrip solutions are pharmacy, hospital catering, and in areas where medicines must be stored at specific temperatures and used within a set time.  Initial trials of the products have been received well and we are excited about the opportunity that the range of solutions offers”.

Reuben Isbitsky, Joint Chief Executive Officer of Timestrip in support of the deal commented, “FingerPrint Data Systems UK Ltd will provide Timestrip with unique access to the healthcare market in the UK through its network of reselling partners.  Having the correct level of market knowledge and contacts is key to understanding client needs and adding value to end processes which will ultimately improve patient safety.  We are pleased to have partnered with such a focused and dedicated partner and are looking forward to high growth in the areas covered”.
