Systematic organization and high-density storage are critical for managing large-scale sample collections in ultra-low temperature environments. Professional cryogenic boxes and specialized grid dividers are engineered from moisture-resistant cardboard to ensure structural integrity during repeated freezing and thawing cycles. As a specialized category within our cooling range under heating and cooling technology, these vessels are foundational for biobanking and long-term sample preservation.
Why Choose Professional Cryogenic Boxes?
Our curated collection of cryo-storage solutions is designed for technical organization and space efficiency:
- Durable LLG-Cryoboxes: We stock LLG-Cryoboxes in various colors, including high-visibility yellow (136x136x100mm) and classic white (133x133x100mm), providing a robust outer shell for sample protection.
- Customizable Grid Dividers: Utilize LLG Cardboard Grid Dividers in multiple configurations, such as 6x6, 7x7, 10x10, and 13x13, to accommodate different vial diameters and storage densities.
- Optimized Height Profiles: Explore dividers in various heights, from H22mm to H65mm, ensuring a precise fit for different tube sizes within the standard cryobox format.
- Moisture-Resistant Design: Find storage solutions crafted from high-quality cardboard specifically treated to withstand the humidity and temperature extremes of cryogenic storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why are grid dividers sold separately from the cryoboxes?
Dividers are often sold separately to allow researchers to customize their LLG-Cryoboxes for specific vial sizes, such as using a 6x6 grid for larger tubes or a 13x13 grid for high-density microtube storage.
2. How do I choose the right grid divider height?
You should select a divider height (e.g., H30mm vs H65mm) that supports at least two-thirds of the tube's height to ensure stability while allowing enough of the tube to remain visible for easy retrieval.
3. Are cardboard cryoboxes suitable for liquid nitrogen?
Cardboard cryoboxes and dividers are typically designed for ultra-low temperature freezers (-80°C) and the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen; for direct immersion, specialized plastic boxes are often preferred.
4. Can the LLG-Cryobox be used for different tube types?
Yes, by selecting the appropriate grid divider (from 6x6 to 13x13), a standard LLG-Cryobox can accommodate various tube formats, including cryovials, microtubes, and small reagent bottles.
