CoolCell Cell Freezing Containers for controlled-rate alcohol-free cell freezing provide a highly reproducible -1℃/minute freezing rate when placed in a -80℃ freezer, with no alcohol or fluids required. The patent-pending Cell Freezing Container technology utilizes a thermo-conductive alloy core and highly-insulative outer material to control the rate of heat removal to provide reproducible cell cryopreservation. The insulative outer housing and thermo-conductive solid state core ensure consistent heat removal to all vials throughout the freezing period.
Cell Freezing Containers can replace isopropanol-based freezing containers such as Mr. Frosty by ThermoFisher Scientific and others, which can consume up to 12l per year of IPA and cost hundreds of dollars per unit per year to maintain.

Secure Sample Preparation
- No variability in freeze rate, all vials have uniform freeze rate
- Radially symmetric design ensures vial consistency
- Numbered vial wells ensure easy sample identification
- Quick removal of frozen vials due to exposed vial tops, and beveled junction between base and lid
Ease & Safety of Use
- Unbreakable
- Ergonomic lid comes off easily when frozen
- Not cold to the touch when removed from -80°C freezer
- Quick reuse time: the containers are ready to use again after 5 minutes
Competitive & Cost Saving
- The units deliver comparable results to expensive programmable freezers
- No fluids (e.g. alcohol) or precooling needed, can save 12l/unit of IPA per year
- No on-going cost due to elimination of hazardous solvents or alcohol purchase and disposal
