Cryogenic solutions for constant temperature control during the manufacture, storage and distribution of vaccines 

Cryogenic freezing equipment uses liquid nitrogen to optimize cooling and freezing time. Air Products’ batch freezer and in-line chilling and freezing equipment is rapid, reliable and helps reduce cooling and freezing times. This helps to shorten the overall processing of pharmaceutical and biotechnology materials with minimal up-front capital investment.

Whether your process will require small or large storage capacities, we offer flexible cryogenic solutions. Our freezers can be operated at a wide variety of ultra-low temperatures.

Liquid nitrogen for rapid freeze-drying and increasing capacity in freeze-drying processes. Freeze-drying is a preferred method for stabilizing live, attenuated virus vaccines. It provides improved stability of vaccine formulations for shipment and storage. By having a lyophilized vaccine product, the shelf life is ensured, and handling is much less complicated.

Cryogenic spray crystallization to produce vaccines in freeze-dried, free flowing powder forms as porous, micrometer-sized, dense particles.

Nitrogen (LIN) for use in Cryogenic and ULT Storage Solutions for biological samples and vaccines at stable temperatures. Air Products provides liquid nitrogen in microbulk or bulk storage to supply storage freezers operating from -20°C to -196°C. 

Dry ice for low temperature reactions, preserving vaccines, serums and tissues. With its high refrigeration capacity and lack of residue owing to sublimation, it is an excellent agent for shipping or storage. Dry ice is ideal for the preservation of vaccines and tissues, and to assist logistics service providers in the delivery of vaccines. Air Products supplies liquid carbon dioxide in microbulk or bulk quantities used to produce dry ice.
