Cold Room Freezers and Refrigerators
Products such as life science pharmaceuticals, biomedical technologies, life systems technologies, nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, food processing, environmental and biomedical devices all demand controlled environments in accordance with the international GDP (Good Distribution Practice) directive. Biotech, medical, and pharmaceutical cold storage must be in active and compliant temperature-controlled systems with proven reliability.
Polar Leasing has been a leading manufacturer of compliant temperature controlled cold rooms for use within the biological, medical, and pharmaceutical industries since 2002. Our prototype dual temperature 8’x10’, 8’x20’, 8’x20’ heavy-duty pallet-capable units and optional 8’x20’ redundant cold rooms undergo independent, 3rd-party testing and validation to ensure they meet our high standard of quality and achieve the required temperatures for biotech and pharma cold storage. These validation reports also provide a dependable baseline for future performance.

Cold Storage in Life Sciences Case Study
Precise temperature control
All custom-built cold rooms utilize a KE2 Controlled Environment system. This type of system is unique for its ability to control the internal temperature as well as defrost cycles to one-tenth of a degree. The KE2 Controlled Environment manages the temperature and humidity of sensitive product inventory. By precisely maintaining both temperature and humidity, the KE2 Controlled Environment preserves product integrity, reduces spoilage, and prevents shrinkage, providing the ideal product environment for pharmaceutical cold storage.
- Provides energy savings 15-50% over mechanically controlled systems.
- Eliminates unnecessary defrosts typically associated with timed based alternatives, reducing energy consumption and preserving product integrity.
- Maximizes energy efficiency with less compressor run time resulting from shorter defrosts.
- Eliminates ice formation on floors and ceilings.
- Eliminates excessive temperature swings.
Generator Adaptable
Polar Leasing temperature controlled cold rooms operate off a 208-220-volt single phase electrical connection. If a generator is required for your specific biotech or pharma cold storage application, a 25,000-watt generator can be used for a 20-foot temperature controlled room or an 8,500-watt generator for a 10-foot temperature controlled room.
Please note: Polar Leasing does not provide generator rentals. Contact your local distributor for information and availability.
