Germany imports a wide variety of goods, but one lesser-known import is blood fractions including antisera. This might seem unusual, but these products are crucial for medical and research purposes. Antisera are used in diagnostic testing and research, while blood fractions (components of blood that have been separated out) can be used in a variety of medical treatments. In 2021, Germany imported blood fractions including antisera worth approximately $29.9 billionThis makes Germany one of the top importers of these products globally.

Germany imports blood fractions from a variety of countries. Some of the top sources include the United States, Switzerland, China, and JapanIn 2019, Germany also imported blood fractions from countries like Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Ukraine, and Egypt.

Our Client is a Mexican-based blood fraction manufacturer, who used us in January to do a pre-shipment inspection on 12 centrifuges purchased in Germany. They were building a state-of-the-art new laboratory close to the National Blood Transfusion Center in Mexico City. The Centrifuges were bought and shipped out of Berlin on Air Freight. Inspexion connected our buyer to a medical equipment inspection expert to do the pre-shipment inspection. Our buyer needed the inspector to verify the machine's capabilities, paperwork, safety labeling, and the packing of each part.

Based on this great experience with us for their first inspection, our client opted to use us again as they now were the exporting party to Germany.
