Vapor Shippers
IATA-Ready Shippers for Ultra-Low Temperature Biological Materials
Tempcontrolled Vapor Phase Cryogenic Shippers are designed for the transport of biological materials requiring ultra-low temperature conditions using liquid nitrogen vapor. These shippers maintain temperatures typically at or below –150 °C without the presence of free liquid nitrogen, enabling safe handling and compliance with air transport regulations.
Our vapor shippers are IATA-ready and suitable for international air cargo when prepared and conditioned according to approved procedures. They are commonly used for the shipment of cell therapies, gene therapies, reproductive materials, and other irreplaceable biological specimens requiring cryogenic preservation.
Tempcontrolled manages shipper preparation, conditioning, documentation, and logistics coordination to support compliant execution across domestic and international lanes.
