For sample transportation or compact freezer storage Alpha’s hinged 50 and 100 position racks are ideal when working with 1.5-2ml vials but storage options for larger 15ml and 50 ml centrifuge tubes are also included in our range. We are also pleased to offer both cryogenic vial workstation racks and dedicated storage boxes specifically designed for use with our range of cryogenic vials. The cryogenic vial workstations are designed with an integral locking ring at the base of each well, which couples with our free-standing cryovials to prevent the vial from rotating when you are unscrewing the cap and facilitating one-handed manipulation. See below for more details.
For versatility our Four-Way Benchracks are valuable additions to the lab, depending upon orientation these racks will accept almost any tube. The Four-Way Benchracks will interlock to provide expandable storage for 50ml or 15 ml centrifuge tubes additionally each unit can be used as a stand alone rack, the four working faces offering distinct configurations to accept 0.5ml, 1.5-2ml, 15 ml or 50ml tubes in turn.

Made of extra strong polycarbonate, these durable cryogenic storage boxes are designed to be used at temperatures between –196 and 121C. Different models are available to accommodate 25, 81 or 100 cryogenic vials from 1.2 to 5ml.
A transparent cover allows the user to see the contents of the box and is keyed to the base to prevent misalignment. Printed with a series of squares (numbered 1 to 25, 1 to 81 or 1 to 100) the surface accepts writing with markers, facilitating inventory control.
On the 25 and 81 place Cryoboxes there is a unique colour coding system of coloured plastic grids to separate the cover from the base. On 100 place boxes, a colour base instead of a grid is used. An innovative vial picker is supplied with each storage box for quick removal of vials. A choice of four popluar colours are available.
