The ESPACE range
Your requirements are unbending where cryoconservation is concerned?
The ESPACE range meets your needs. Whatever the type of product, the quantity to be conserved or the storage system, there is an ESPACE that accurately matches your needs and will be able to change as they do.
ESPACE units are effective and easy-to-use too. Every detail has been thought out to make your work more pleasant and efficient.
But first and foremost ESPACE’s technology is a guarantee of reliability. Because of the quality of the cryogenic compartment, as well as all the monitoring and control systems on the container, you are confidently able to store your most valuable products.
If your samples must not be in contact with liquid nitrogen, the ESPACE 151/331/661 GAS units are just for you. Off the floor, they are able to conserve in the gaseous phase throughout 100% of the storage capacity.
With the ESPACE range, enter the new dimension of cryoconservation.

The RCB range
An impressive volume for storage, reduced nitrogen consumption and unfailing sturdiness: for more than thirty years, RCBs have been the benchmark for containers in the cryobiology sphere.
RCBs 500/600/1000/1001 have a narrow neck that reduces nitrogen evaporation to the absolute minimum and conserves at an extremely low range of temperatures. They are also particularly suited for keeping large quantities of biological products for long periods.
For conservation in the gaseous phase, we have designed RCBs 600 and 1001 that enable contact between liquid nitrogen and samples to be avoided, without reducing the storage capacity.
RCBs can be fitted with an extremely wide range of internal attachments, which makes them suitable for a very broad variety of cryobiological applications. They also have the benefit of AIR LIQUIDE’s extensive experience in monitoring and controlling cryoconservation.
Exceptionally reliable and robust, the RCB range gives you the guarantee of unfailing conservation.
