Celebration Stem Cell Centre

About

The Celebration Stem Cell Centre (CSCC), offers both public donation and private family banking of umbilical cord blood. All cord blood collections are processed according to the highest standards in the industry in a state-of-the art facility located in Gilbert, Arizona.

Labs and Locations

Celebration Stem Cell Centre operates their own laboratory at their headquarters in Gilbert, Arizona, outside Phoenix. The facility houses two clean rooms, multiple stem cell processing stations (Biological Safety Cabinets), several cryogenic storage tanks located in the clean room (all monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, by a call-out system as well as under CCTV security cameras), and a bulk liquid nitrogen supply tank that feeds the cryogenic tanks. The lab is located in a part of the country that does not suffer from natural disasters. In addition, the facility was designed with glass walls, so visitors can watch the technicians process and store the cord blood stem cells while touring the facility.
