Polypropylene cryoboxes

Organization systems for refrigerators/freezers Polypropylene cryoboxes

Polypropylene cryoboxes are used for the secure organisation and storage of sample vessels in freezers and laboratory cabinets. These robust storage systems are used in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and clinical diagnostics for archiving microtubes. The boxes are specifically designed for common vessel sizes from 0.5 ml to 2.0 ml and support structured sample management.

Properties of polypropylene cryoboxes

The polypropylene cryoboxes listed here are characterised by their resistance to low temperatures. With a standard height of 50 mm, they are optimally suited for use in freezer racks and chest racks. The polypropylene material is chemically resistant and offers a durable solution for the long-term storage of sensitive samples in research.

Grid variants and capacities

Users can choose between different configurations. Boxes are available with a 9x9 grid for 81 vessels, as well as versions with a 10x10 grid, which offer space for up to 100 tubes. These variants cover volumes of 0.5 ml, 1.5 ml to 2.0 ml, with models available featuring attached lids or numerical coding.

Colour coding and identification

To easily distinguish between different sample sets, the polypropylene boxes are available in various colours. Integrated numerical coding on certain models facilitates the quick assignment of individual sample positions. This minimises search times when the freezer is open and contributes to the thermal stability of the stored samples.

Frequently asked questions about polypropylene cryoboxes

Here you will find answers to technical questions regarding the storage and selection of PP cryoboxes.

What are polypropylene cryoboxes used for?

They are used for the systematic storage of sample vessels such as microtubes in ultra-low temperature freezers or laboratory refrigerators to maintain order and optimise space utilisation.

Which grid size is suitable for 2.0 ml tubes?

Both the 9x9 grid for 81 vessels and the 10x10 grid for 100 vessels are designed for tubes with a volume of 1.5 ml to 2.0 ml and a height of 50 mm.

What material advantages does polypropylene offer in cryotechnology?

Polypropylene is shatterproof, temperature-resistant for common deep-freeze applications, and resistant to many chemicals and solvents used in the laboratory.

What is the difference between 9x9 and 10x10 grids?

The 9x9 grid offers space for 81 vessels with slightly more room per position, while the 10x10 grid increases the capacity to 100 vessels per box with the same external dimensions.

Which accessories are useful for storing the boxes?

For efficient storage in freezers, suitable cabinet racks or drawer racks should be used, which are specifically matched to the box height of 50 mm.

How can one obtain a quote for larger quantities of these cryoboxes?

Interested parties can request an individual quote via the article list to obtain terms for specific packaging units or larger project quantities.

How does numerical coding help in daily laboratory work?

The printed or embossed numbering allows for clear identification of every sample position, which simplifies documentation and prevents mix-ups when retrieving samples.
