Not All Liquid Nitrogen Dewars Are the Same — Here's How to Choose


If you work in an IVF lab or manage a research facility with cryogenic storage requirements, you have probably stood in front of a liquid nitrogen vessel at some point and quietly wondered if there is something better out there. Spoiler: there usually is.

Cryolab makes two distinct families of LN2 storage vessels, and they are built for quite different jobs.


CryoNest® Series available in 95-litre (XL), 145-litre (XXL), and 175-litre (XXXL) configurations is for labs that need scale. High sample volumes, multiple clinicians accessing the vessel throughout the day, long-term storage of embryos, oocytes, and sperm across a large patient base. The proprietary internal rack system means up to 30 compartments of organised, accessible storage in a footprint that would surprise you. Explore it at cryolab.co.uk/product-category/storage-vessels/


CryoCan Series three models: the 30-6, 47-6, and 47-10 is for labs where compactness matters as much as capacity. The 30-litre CryoCan 30-6 fits in tight spaces and holds over 2,000 straws across six canisters. The CryoCan 47-10 gives you ten canister slots in a 47-litre vessel, with hold times that outperform many of the most established names in the market. See them at cryolab.co.uk/product/cryolab-cryocan-47-10/



Both carry UKCA and CE certification and come with a 5-year vacuum warranty. The difference is simply in scale and configuration. Cryolab will help you work out which one fits your lab.
