Choosing the Right LN₂ Storage Tank

 

When it comes to preserving eggs, sperm, embryos, and other biological samples, maintaining consistent ultra-low temperatures is non-negotiable. Liquid nitrogen storage tanks are the backbone of long-term cryopreservation in IVF clinics, fertility labs, research centres, and medical institutions. At Cryolab, we offer a complete range of cryogenic storage vessels engineered for both performance and safety covering everything from vertical LN₂ tanks and cryo storage containers to portable dry shippers.

Our cryogenic storage tanks are designed to meet a wide range of storage needs. Whether you're managing embryo storage, sperm storage, or oocyte preservation, we provide options that include narrow-neck and wide-neck LN₂ tanks in both high capacity and space-saving models. From low-evaporation LN₂ tanks to those with extended holding times, our systems are developed with one purpose in mind: to ensure reliable, long-term storage at -196°C without compromise.

Every cryo tank we manufacture reflects precision engineering, with advanced insulation systems that reduce LN₂ evaporation rates and maintain temperature stability. This is crucial not just for protecting sample integrity, but also for reducing operating costs. Our liquid nitrogen storage containers are available in both aluminium and stainless-steel construction, combining strength with lightweight portability. If mobility is key, our dry shippers (portable LN₂ tanks for transport) ensure that your biological samples stay safe in transit, maintaining cryogenic temperatures throughout the journey.

For those looking into cryogenic freezers or larger-scale cryopreservation solutions, we also supply horizontal LN₂ tanks and cryo dewars that can handle bulk storage volumes. Every model includes features such as pressure relief valves, built-in temperature monitoring, and a range of neck sizes suited to various workflows and storage racks. Whether it’s an LN₂ tank for sperm storage or a bulk liquid nitrogen storage tank for a research lab, every vessel is designed for performance and peace of mind.

Our CryoNest® series featuring the XL, XXL, and XXXL racked tanks combines large liquid nitrogen tank capacity with compact footprints ideal for busy lab environments. Their efficient design ensures that biological samples are easy to organise and access, thanks to integrated racks and canisters. We also offer full support for tank calibration, LN₂ supply in the UK, and ongoing maintenance.

In choosing the right LN₂ cryopreservation tank, several factors matter: durability, portability, evaporation rate, warranty coverage, and available accessories. You’ll also want to consider whether your application requires cryo tanks specifically built for liquid nitrogen sperm storage or multi-purpose biological storage tanks. We understand that every clinic and lab has unique requirements, which is why we provide expert guidance to help you select the right solution whether you need industrial liquid nitrogen storage tanks, storage tank boxes, or cryogenic systems tailored to cell storage.

At Cryolab, we're committed to offering cryogenic liquid nitrogen storage tanks that deliver on safety, efficiency, and long-term reliability.
