Why use Smart Cells International?

If your child's stem cells are needed for a transplant we are able to retrieve the stored unit and prepare it for transport to a treating clinic very quickly and easily. We have released stored units which have been successfully used in transplants.

Proven Service

Smart Cells International has transported stored stem cell units to treatment centres in Singapore and Germany. These units were successfully used in the treatment of two children suffering from Thalassaemia, and both children are very healthy and free from the disease.

More recently, Smart Cells International has transported two further units of stored stem cells to Duke University in North Carolina, USA, where two more clients have had their children infused with these stem cells in a formal clinical trial to help treat Cerebral Palsy. 

Smart Cells International is the only private UK company to have released stored stem cells for use in transplants

One measure to validate a company's processes is whether or not the cells are useful in transplant upon thawing. Smart Cells International's processed and stored cord blood stem cells have been successfully used in life-saving stem cell transplants.                        

The longest established private cord blood stem cell storage company in the UK.

Sometimes a good indication of whether a company will be around in the future, is to see how long they have been in business. Smart Cells International possesses a strong track record - founded in 2001, it was the UK's first stem cell company; it is now one of the largest and most established family cord blood storage companies.

Fully licensed to import/export, process, test and store stem cells

Make sure that the cord blood bank that you choose is not simply a marketing outlet. Some companies do not perform their own processing or storage. Smart Cells International owns and operates it's own state-of-the art processing, testing and storage facility. We are  in complete control of every step, ensuring the highest quality available today.
