The Cryogenic Racks for Labs category includes the instruments, accessories and consumables needed to heat, cool, incubate, freeze or stabilise samples and processes at defined temperatures. Selecting them as part of a complete workflow helps prevent compatibility problems that are easy to miss when individual items are considered separately.
Temperature uniformity, recovery and control stability influence reaction rates, storage integrity and the reproducibility of many laboratory methods. For dependable results, compare uniformity and stability, pump flow or air circulation, controller and logging options, and working temperature range and confirm that the selected item is suitable for both the immediate task and the surrounding workflow.
A complete temperature-control setup matches the load and vessel to the working range, heating or cooling capacity, circulation, monitoring and safety requirements. The same principle applies across research, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, food, materials and industrial laboratories: control the inputs, use compatible equipment and document the conditions that can influence the result. As part of the Laboratory Heating and Cooling Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Cryogenic Racks for Labs range
Our collection covers these stainless steel racks resistant to corrosion in liquid nitrogen, these racks for storage of non-cryogenic items, chest freezer racks and upright freezer racks, and checking which rack fits my 50 mm or 75 mm cryoboxes, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
These stainless steel racks resistant to corrosion in liquid nitrogen
The high-grade stainless steel used by manufacturers like Thermo Nalgene and Crystal Technology is specifically selected for its resistance to corrosion and mechanical strength at cryogenic temperatures. Key differences are usually found in uniformity and stability, pump flow or air circulation, and controller and logging options. These details affect day-to-day usability as much as the main performance specification. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
These racks for storage of non-cryogenic items
While optimised for cryoboxes, these robust stainless steel racks can be used to organize any standard-sized containers in cold rooms or general laboratory shelving where durability is required. Selection should take account of pump flow or air circulation, controller and logging options, and working temperature range. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
Chest freezer racks and upright freezer racks
Upright freezer racks like the Crystal Technology 10x1 models are designed for vertical access, whereas chest freezer racks often feature pull-out handles for top-loading access; always verify the rack orientation for your specific unit. When comparing options, consider controller and logging options, working temperature range, and heating or cooling capacity. The correct choice should fit the sample, expected workload and any equipment already used in the method. Used correctly, this part of the range helps laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. The result is a setup that is easier to train, document and maintain.
Checking which rack fits my 50 mm or 75 mm cryoboxes
Racks are specifically dimensioned for box height; a Crystal Technology rack for 75 mm boxes will have larger shelf gaps than one for standard 50 mm boxes to ensure a secure and efficient fit. For routine and specialised work, assess working temperature range, heating or cooling capacity, and chamber or bath volume. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories hold samples and processes within the conditions required for repeatable work and dependable storage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these stainless steel racks resistant to corrosion in liquid nitrogen?
The high-grade stainless steel used by manufacturers like Thermo Nalgene and Crystal Technology is specifically selected for its resistance to corrosion and mechanical strength at cryogenic temperatures. Before ordering, confirm heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, and uniformity and stability and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
Can I use these racks for storage of non-cryogenic items?
While optimised for cryoboxes, these robust stainless steel racks can be used to organize any standard-sized containers in cold rooms or general laboratory shelving where durability is required. Before ordering, confirm heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, and uniformity and stability and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
What is the difference between chest freezer racks and upright freezer racks?
Upright freezer racks like the Crystal Technology 10x1 models are designed for vertical access, whereas chest freezer racks often feature pull-out handles for top-loading access; always verify the rack orientation for your specific unit. Before ordering, confirm heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, and uniformity and stability and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
How do I know which rack fits my 50 mm or 75 mm cryoboxes?
Racks are specifically dimensioned for box height; a Crystal Technology rack for 75 mm boxes will have larger shelf gaps than one for standard 50 mm boxes to ensure a secure and efficient fit. Laboratories should compare heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, and uniformity and stability and document the selected setup for consistent use.
Which specifications matter most when comparing cryogenic racks?
The most important points are heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, uniformity and stability, and pump flow or air circulation. Laboratories should also consider how the item will be stored, prepared, cleaned and replaced over its working life. The final choice should reflect heating or cooling capacity, chamber or bath volume, and uniformity and stability, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
