Winter Shipping Guidelines
With winter no doubt closing in on the Midwest, we need to keep in mind that at times when temperatures are too low Nelson-Jameson will not be able to ship items that cannot be allowed to freeze, which could compromise the integrity/performance of the product.The guidelines that will be followed are:
When the daytime high is less than 15°F OR the nighttime low is less than 0°F, freezable items will not be shipped.
A. Do not allow to freeze – will not reconstitute and/or will be adversely affected:
| Acetic Acid All .1N Solutions Alsan Bromo Cheese & Butter Color Chemland Statibac/Asid-O-San Chloride Standard Coagulase Plasma Cryoscope Standards Delvotest P/SP Kits EY Tellurite Food Grade Defoamers Gram Stains Indicator |
Methylene Blue Stains Neutralizer Pasteurization Standards Penzyme Kits pH Buffers pH Electrodes Prepared Media: Contact Plates, Air Sampler Strips Raven Biological Indicators Rutgers Test Kits Silver Nitrates Sodium Hypochlorite Sanitizers SystemSure Swabs Thermospore Suspensions Udy Dye Solutions Water Canisters |
B. Can be reconstituted by throughly mixing:
| Acid Cleaners – will freeze at relatively cool temperatures Alkali Cleaners – will freeze at relatively cool temperatures. May need agitation to reconstitute. Teat Dips & Udderwashes |
C. Can be shipped without any adverse affect:
| Butanol Chlorfoam |
To protect product integrity, we take measures not to ship during times when temperatures drop below 15ºF. This ensures your shipment is not left in an unheated truck or building overnight. We will try to ship early in the week, and suggest other shipping options to get you what you need, when you need it.
