Laboratory Refrigerators and Freezers

Our Range of Laboratory Refrigerators & Laboratory Freezers for Sale

Purpose-built freezers and refrigerators are an essential part of a functioning laboratory, with rigorous testing and trials undergone to ensure that your temperature-sensitive samples are safely stored. All Vacc-Safe® Premium and Medi Guard® Premium products also offer full QCPP Compliance, ensuring proper storage, monitoring and Cold Chain Compliance industry standards are met. Some factors that may impact your decision when choosing a laboratory refrigerator or freezer include:

• Temperature: choosing the appropriate solution for your sample’s temperature requirements is crucial. Maximum and minimum temperatures can vary depending on the type of freezer or refrigerator, with our laboratory catalogue offering various under-counter, upright and ultra-low temperature (ULT) solutions.
  Sample Type: many samples will require different storage specifications; a typical example is volatile flammable liquids such as solvents, which will require a spark-free laboratory freezer (orderable upon request).
• Defrost Capabilities: depending on your samples’ temperature sensitivity, you may need to consider the defrost features offered by your freezer. Manual defrost freezers are the best solution for temperature-sensitive samples, as automatic defrosting can overheat your samples.
• Capacity: your freezer size will be highly dependent on the number of samples you need to store. Typically a maximum space usage of 70% gives the best results to ensure temperature stability.
• Energy Usage: you may need to consider the energy consumption of your freezer, with some products such as ULT freezers demanding a higher energy usage.
• Space: you’ll also need to consider the space you have in your laboratory and how best to utilise it for a freezer or refrigerator.
• Shelving: you may need to consider what shelving and organisational arrangements are available for your freezer or refrigerator.
