More stored stem cells, more medical treatment options for your family.
Aside from cord blood and cord tissue, save your baby’s cord lining as well because it contains two types of stem cells that can provide extra protection for your family.
What makes your baby’s umbilical cord lining unique?
From medical waste to a valuable resource containing potentially life-saving stem cells.
The umbilical cord is usually cut after the baby is born and discarded with the placenta as medical waste until researchers discovered its medical potential. The umbilical cord contains cord blood, cord tissue or Wharton’s jelly, and other components, and it’s protected by a sheet-like membrane called the cord lining. Cord lining has two types of stem cells: mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and cord lining epithelial stem cells (CLEpSCs).
Immense potential to repair and heal our body
Mesenchymal stem cells and epithelial cells have the potential to repair and heal the body in ways that cord blood does not. These cells have demonstrated immense capability in the repair of injured tissues and organs, as well as in the treatment of various diseases.
Mesenchymal stem cells
Mesenchymal stem cells have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into:
- Bone cells
- Cartilage cells
- Heart cells
- Muscle cells
- Nerve cells
- Pancreatic cells
- Fat cells
Cord lining epithelial stem cells
Epithelial cells are multipotent cells with the ability to differentiate into:
- Pancreatogenic cells
- Keratogenic cells
- Corneal cells
- Hepatocyte-like cells
Potential Applications Around the World1
More than 1000 clinical trials are now ongoing to uncover the potential applications of the stem cells from your baby’s umbilical cord. Please visit clinicaltrials.gov for the complete list.

Harness the Power of Cord Lining
44 patents granted by 40 countries.
Cordlife is the only company authorized to offer cord lining banking in the Philippines.
Only patent owner and licensed partners can isolate cells from cord lining.
Tried and tested technology by clinicians and researchers from top research institutes globally.
Post-thaw testing is performed after 4 weeks of cryopreservation to ensure the cord lining was properly preserved.
Why you should consider umbilical cord lining banking for your baby:
Umbilical cord lining stem cells have immune-modulating characteristics. Therefore matching of stem cells between donor and the patient may not be required, which makes them useful both for your baby and other members in the family;
Umbilical cord lining stem cells can also help increase the success rate of stem cell transplant. It contains two types of stem cells – Mesenchymal (MSCs) and Epithelial (EpSCs) Stem Cells, which can be used to support multiple medical treatments whenever needed.
With umbilical cord lining stem cells, your baby and family members will have more treatment options in the future, especially for disorders* that are incurable today such as stroke and heart attack.
Compared to other sources such as bone marrow and adipose tissue, stem cells from umbilical cord lining are younger with better expansion capacity and patients receiving such as stem cells have lower risk of graft versus host disease.
Using cryogenic storage method, umbilical cord lining can remain viable for a long time. This means that the therapeutic value of umbilical cord lining stem cells are well-preserved until the need for treatment arises.
Your baby has one chance to have his/her umbilical cord lining collected as this painless and harmless process must be done at birth.
Getting Started
Save your baby’s cord blood for 18 years with value-added benefits for as low as P10,000+ monthly payable in 36 months.
What our Clients Have to Say
Aside from cord blood, my baby’s cord lining is also banked with Cordlife. Cord lining stem cells provide our family with more medical options in the
future.
Chito Miranda, Jr.
Preserving Alonzo’s cord blood and cord lining is one of the best decisions we’ve made for our child and for the family.
Dimples Romana
With cord lining banking, whatever happens, we know we have an option available to make sure our children’s well-being is taken care of.
Camille Prats-Yambao
There are far more benefits that we can get for the safety of my entire family through banking our child’s umbilical cord blood and cord lining.
Pauleen Luna-Sotto
Banking Primo’s cord blood and cord lining was a no brainer!”
Iya Villania Arellano
The only time you can harvest the umbilical cord stem cells is after birth. If we’ll ever need it in the future, at least we already have it stored. Umbilical cord lining banking is an investment and the price is reasonable considering the benefits.
