Problem
Laboratories storing cryogenic biological samples often face severe space constraints, with bulky dewars and inefficient freezer configurations consuming valuable floor area. This fragmentation forces facilities to add off-site storage or expand physical infrastructure, disrupting workflows and increasing operational costs.
Solution
Cryohexagon offers a modular racking system that multiplies cryogenic storage capacity by up to 4x within the same footprint, eliminating the need for additional floor space. The system uses precision-engineered stainless-steel canisters with a smart two-tier design, allowing labs to store more samples in a single tank. A 2-click lever mechanism enables quick reconfiguration or secure shipping of canisters, while the integrated software digitalizes inventory tracking and management. This approach optimizes space, enhances sample security, and extends storage capacity time horizons for busy laboratories.
Target Audience
Primary customers are IVF laboratories, biobanks, and research facilities that require high-density cryogenic storage for biological samples such as embryos, cells, and tissues.
