Medical Fridges for Laboratories

Medical fridges and freezers are now a vital piece of equipment in most laboratories. Although they look similar to domestic fridges, lab fridges differ in that they’re specially designed and optimised for use in a laboratory to keep biological samples and other specimens stored at very specific temperatures.

Why are Laboratory Fridges & Freezers Important?

Lab fridges maintain a defined, internal storage temperature (between +2oC and +8oC) for the secure storage and protection of temperature-sensitive products such as biological samples, chemicals, drugs, vaccines, and other substances needed for laboratory use.

Any temperature-sensitive products that fluctuate outside the temperature range of +2oC and +8oC (also known as ‘the cold chain’) can become spoiled, which leads to a lot of wasted time and money. Standard domestic or catering fridges are simply not accurate enough to achieve these precise temperatures.

Our lab fridges are available in a range of different sizes and specifications ideal for refrigerating vital products, but their purpose remains the same – to ensure lab products are stored at their optimum temperature.

The Features & Benefits of CoolMed Lab Fridges & Freezers:

Why Choose CoolMed?

Unlike other medical fridge suppliers, we’re involved in the manufacturing process of our fridges, which means that we quality-check each fridge at multiple points during the development process. This is why we’re so confident in the capabilities of our fridges and offer a 5-year parts and labour warranty as standard. This can be extended to 7 years for just £99.

The majority of our products are available for next day delivery, so we can help out in emergency situations and prevent products from becoming spoiled.

Also, if you are looking to replace your existing medical fridge, we can take away your old fridge for a small fee, saving you time and effort in making other arrangements.
