Where Koller Cold Rooms Work in Pharmacy & Laboratoire
Pharmaceutical Cold Storage
Walk-in freezers and coolers store medicines, active pharmaceutical ingredients and reagents at precise temperatures, ensuring compliance with GDP and WHO storage guidelines.
Vaccine & Cold Chain
Vaccine storage requires uninterrupted temperature control from +2°C to -25°C. Koller cold rooms with redundant refrigeration units maintain the cold chain from manufacturer to point of care.
Laboratory Cooling
Ice crushers provide crushed ice for cooling baths, sample preparation and diagnostic testing. Walk-in coolers maintain stable temperatures for reagent and chemical storage.
Biological Sample Storage
Blast freezers reach -60°C for shock-freezing plasma, blood products, tissue samples and DNA. Rapid freeze preserves cellular structure and biological activity for long-term archival.
Walk-In Freezer vs Walk-In Cooler for Pharmacy
Choosing between a walk-in freezer and a walk-in cooler depends on your storage temperature requirements — both are essential in pharmaceutical and laboratory environments.
Walk-In Freezer
-25°C to -12°C frozen storage- Maintains consistent sub-zero temperatures for long-term storage of vaccines, reagents and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
- PU insulation panels (60–200 mm) with Camlock joint system for airtight thermal sealing.
- Customizable from 2 m³ to 100+ m³, with sliding or hinged door options and anti-slip floor panels.
Surgélateur
-60°C to -25°C rapid freeze- Shock-freezes biological samples, plasma and tissue at ultra-low temperatures in under 4 hours per batch.
- Preserves cellular integrity, protein structure and DNA for long-term biological archival.
- Available in benchtop and walk-in configurations with digital temperature logging and alarm systems.

Pharmacie & Laboratory Cold Room FAQ
What is a walk-in freezer and how is it used in pharmacy?
A walk-in freezer is a large insulated cold room that maintains temperatures between -25°C and -12°C. In pharmaceutical settings, walk-in freezers store temperature-sensitive medicines, reagents and raw materials that require consistent sub-zero conditions to preserve efficacy and comply with WHO cold-chain guidelines.
What is the difference between a walk-in freezer and a walk-in cooler?
Walk-in freezers operate at -25°C to -12°C for frozen storage, while walk-in coolers run at -12°C to +5°C for chilled products. Pharmacy labs typically use coolers for short-term reagent storage and freezers for long-term preservation of vaccines, biological samples and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
What temperature range does a blast freezer reach?
Koller blast freezers operate from -60°C to -25°C with rapid pull-down capability. They are used in pharmaceutical and laboratory environments for shock-freezing biological samples, preserving plasma and blood products, and flash-cooling temperature-sensitive compounds before cold storage.
How do I choose the right cold room size for my laboratory?
Cold room sizing depends on your daily storage volume, product turnover rate and facility footprint. Koller offers walk-in coolers and freezers in capacities from 2 m³ to over 100 m³, with customizable panel dimensions, door types and refrigeration unit sizing.
What is an ice crusher used for in pharmacy and laboratory?
Ice crushers break block ice into small, uniform granules ideal for laboratory cooling baths, pharmaceutical compounding, sample preparation and diagnostic testing. Koller VIB series ice crushers handle 1 à 10 tons per day with food-grade stainless steel contact parts.
Are Koller cold rooms compliant with pharmaceutical storage standards?
Oui. Koller walk-in cold rooms are built with premium PU insulation panels (60–200 mm), CE-certified refrigeration units and precise digital temperature controllers. They meet WHO and GDP requirements for pharmaceutical cold-chain storage and can be validated with temperature mapping and monitoring systems.
What refrigeration units are compatible with Koller cold rooms?
Koller offers monoblock and split-type refrigeration units in 2 HP to 30 HP capacities, compatible with all walk-in cooler, freezer and blast freezer models. Units use R404A, R449A or R134a refrigerants and include digital controllers, automatic defrost and overload protection.
What warranty do Koller cold room and ice machine products carry?
All Koller machines carry a 1-year warranty covering free repair and replacement components. Au-delà de la période de garantie, the same after-sales service continues at cost. We also provide remote technical support and on-site installation guidance worldwide.
