Robust stainless steel chest racks enable structured sample storage in chest freezers for laboratories, biobanks, and pharmaceutical facilities. These organisation systems are specifically designed to accommodate cryoboxes of various heights as well as microtiter plates. Vertical stacking allows for the efficient utilisation of available storage volume in research and diagnostics.

Advantages of stainless steel chest racks

The chest racks listed here are made of high-quality stainless steel, ensuring high corrosion resistance and durability at ultra-low temperatures. Many models feature a practical folding handle, which facilitates the removal of the racks from the chest freezer. Precise manufacturing ensures stability when stacking numerous sample containers across the entire usable height of the unit.

Custom-fit solutions for various box heights

The range includes racks for standard cryoboxes with a base dimension of approx. 136 x 136 mm. Variants are available for different box heights, including 33 mm, 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm, and 130 mm. Special racks for microtiter plates and various sample vessels are also available to allow for flexible organisation of different sample formats.

Compatibility with leading freezer models

For optimal space utilisation, we offer specific racks tailored to the internal dimensions of well-known manufacturers. These include solutions for Haier chest freezers, SANYO/Panasonic freezers, Thermo Herafreeze (HFC models), as well as Forma freezers, SKADI, and New Brunswick. The selection of the appropriate rack depends on the internal usable height of the chest and the box grid used.

Frequently asked questions about chest racks

Here you will find answers to technical and organisational questions regarding storage in chest freezers.

What are chest racks needed for in the laboratory?

Chest racks serve the vertical organisation of samples in chest freezers. They prevent the disorganised stacking of boxes and allow quick access to individual sample batches without having to move the entire inventory.

How do you choose the right height for chest racks?

The selection is based on the internal usable height of the chest freezer minus a safety clearance for the lid. Additionally, the number of cryoboxes to be stored and their individual height (e.g., 50 mm or 75 mm) must be taken into account.

What material requirements apply to cryogenic storage?

In cryopreservation, stainless steel is the preferred material because it remains dimensionally stable even at temperatures of -80°C or lower, does not become brittle, and is easy to clean and disinfect.

What is the difference between racks for cryoboxes and microtiter plates?

Racks for cryoboxes are designed for standard square formats (approx. 136 mm). Racks for microtiter plates have slots that are precisely matched to the footprint and the lower height of MTP plates.

What role does the folding handle play in chest racks?

A folding handle on the top of the rack is essential for ergonomics. It allows laboratory personnel to safely pull the entire rack up from the depth of the chest, even when wearing protective clothing.

How do I find the right rack for a specific freezer model?

Compatibility can be determined via the manufacturer lists for brands such as Haier, SANYO, or Panasonic. The dimensions of the interior and the number of compartments the rack is intended to hold are decisive.

How is safe sample removal from deep chests ensured?

By using stainless steel racks with fixed slots or stacking capacities, it is ensured that samples do not slip when lifted out. Clear labelling of the racks supports quick identification.
