Insulated Containers
Insulated containers maintain a constant temperature to help protect temperature-sensitive materials during benchtop use, short- or long-term storage, or transport. Available in a variety of types, such as polyurethane boxes, chests, coolers, and mini-coolers, insulated containers can be used for enzymes, cells, reagents, and other solutions.
Specific applications include: protection from moderate and extreme ambient temperature exposure; short-term frozen or hot storage; and controlled rate freezing (approximately -1°C/minute) for cell preservation.
Insulated containers include:
- Benchtop coolers
- Dewar bottles or flasks
- Freezing containers
- Ice buckets and pans
Insulated containers are usually used for cold items, although they can also be used with cold or hot items.

Large Foam Dewar offers a versatile and safe solution for a wide range of laboratory applications requiring temporary cryogenic storage or precise chilling. With a substantial 1400 mL (1.4 Liter) capacity, this dewar is perfectly suited for handling liquid nitrogen, dry ice, ice, or other various cooling agents. Constructed from robust, high-density foam, it provides excellent thermal insulation, crucial for maintaining stable temperatures and ensuring the integrity of your sensitive samples or reagents. Its lightweight and inherently shatterproof design enhances safety in the lab, minimizing risks associated with accidental drops. The dewar features a wide, accessible opening for convenient insertion and retrieval of materials, and its stable base promotes secure placement on any benchtop. Ideal for quick chilling, temporary storage of cryo-vials, and other temperature-sensitive items, this Mitegen foam dewar is a highly reliable and indispensable addition to any scientific setting.
Electron Microscopy Sciences Foam Cryogenic Dewar Large, 1400 ml, 6.3" I.D., 3.8" Depth
The foam dewars are safe, durable containers for handling liquid nitrogen and cryogenic materials. Foam dewars use fine closed cell foam for insulation, which is chemically inert and mechanically durable enough to be exposed directly to liquid nitrogen, without leaking or degrading. They have superior insulating properties compared to stainless or glass, at a fraction of the cost. Also, due to the lower thermal mass, foam vessels cause less liquid nitrogen boil off when filled, and will accumulate less frost. This results in less liquid nitrogen being used. Feature a foam lid.
