Liquid Nitrogen
Liquid Nitrogen supply for your cryogenic needs with total safety
Laboratories, hospitals, and research facilities use liquid nitrogen to store and transport temperature-sensitive materials. Whether you are storing or transporting these fluids, using the correct tank is still essential for safe handling. A suitable tank keeps the product at the proper temperature, minimises pressure fluctuations and reduces the risk of spills or sudden evaporation.
Equipment and support
CRYOPDP supplies liquid nitrogen and cryogenic containers for storage and transport. We help you choose the right tank or container for your volumes, space, and how your team works. Installation and daily handling can also be included, so conditions stay controlled from the moment of filling through to delivery. Including clear guidance on routine checks, maintenance, and safe transfer steps between tanks and containers.
Personal protection and safety risks
Liquid nitrogen isn’t something to handle with everyday Laboratory PPE. Staff must wear protection made for cryogenic temperatures: insulated gloves, eye protection with a face shield, long sleeves, a protective apron, and closed footwear. Staff must not use standard lab gloves or basic safety glasses for liquid nitrogen work.
These cryogenic fluids can cause severe cold burns on contact with skin, eyes, or face. Burns may occur from direct contact or splashes and can develop quickly. In enclosed or poorly ventilated rooms, evaporated nitrogen can reduce oxygen levels, increasing the risk of asphyxiation. Therefore, work areas should have good ventilation, oxygen monitoring where necessary, and clear procedures for safety emergencies.
By combining suitable equipment, clear instructions, and basic training, organisations can safely and effectively use liquid nitrogen.
