Cryogenic Transport & Storage
Advanced LN2 logistics solutions for life sciences and healthcare
Challenge
Protecting highly-sensitive advanced therapies and biological materials across complex, highly regulated supply chains.
Solution
COREX offers global, fully compliant cryogenic logistics services backed by deep regional expertise.
What Is Cryogenic Transportation?
Cryogenic transportation is the process of shipping temperature‑sensitive biological materials at extremely low temperatures, typically below -150°C, using specialized equipment such as LN2 dry shippers. It is essential for preserving the integrity and viability of advanced therapies, reproductive cells and biological samples throughout transit. At COREX, cryogenic shipping is performed under strict GDP and IATA guidelines with real-time monitoring. We provide cryogenic logistics solutions tailored to pharma and biotech needs, acting as one of the trusted cryogenic transportation providers for domestic and cross-border shipments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature range is maintained for cryogenic shipping?
We maintain stable cryogenic temperatures from -150°C to -196°C using validated LN2 vapour-phase dry shippers . This temperature range is the industry standard for cell and gene therapies (CGT), reproductive cells and other biological materials.
What materials typically require cryo shipping?
Cryogenic shipping is critical for temperature-sensitive biomaterials requiring storage below -150°C to preserve cellular viability. Key applications include cell and gene therapies (CGT) such as CAR-T, reproductive cells and tissues, biological materials for R&D.
What is the difference between a liquid nitrogen dewar and a dry shipper?
Traditional liquid nitrogen (LN2) dewars hold free-flowing liquid at -196°C that poses a spill risk. Therefore, these containers are classified as dangerous goods for shipping under IATA DGR. In contrast, dry shippers use an internal lining to fully absorb LN2. This allows for spill-free, vapour-phase transport (-150°C to -196°C) and eliminates dangerous goods restrictions for the container.
How long can a dry shipper maintain cryogenic temperatures without refilling LN2?
Our validated dry shippers offer a static hold time of up to 21 days under stationary storage conditions and a guaranteed dynamic hold time of 10 days. This ten-day window provides a solid safety margin for any cross-border transit and customs clearance. Should an unforeseen delay occur, our proactive protocols include in-transit dry shipper re-charging, maintaining an unbroken cryogenic cold chain worldwide.
