Liebherr : What equipment for storing samples at a controlled temperature?

An international benchmark in professional refrigeration, Liebherr designs refrigerators and freezers for laboratories, healthcare and quality control. Its hallmark: exemplary temperature stability, proven reliability and best-in-class energy efficiency. Ventilated or static models, ATEX options for flammable substances, and monitoring solutions meet the demands of biotech, pharma, hospitals and R&D. The aim: protect your samples, reduce risk and streamline day-to-day operations.

A pioneer in laboratory refrigeration since 1949

Founded in 1949 in Germany, the Liebherr Group quickly established itself as a leading engineering force. Its appliances division, based among other sites in Ochsenhausen (Germany), develops high-performance refrigeration solutions for domestic and professional use, then extends its expertise to laboratory and healthcare environments. Underpinned by rigorous German engineering, European manufacturing and a culture of purposeful innovation, the brand has built its reputation on durability, precision and safety. Adoption of natural refrigerants, energy optimisation, stronger traceability and monitoring: with every generation, Liebherr evolves its portfolio to meet regulatory standards and the real-world expectations of R&D, quality control and hospital teams across Europe.

Expertise & capabilities

Designed for the demands of laboratories, Liebherr equipment combines precise thermal control, mechanical robustness and ease of use. Laboratory refrigerators deliver outstanding uniformity and temperature stability, thanks to optimised insulation and either forced-air or static cooling systems tailored to varying loads. Freezers cover routine cold storage down to -40 °C, with frost-limiting cycles that preserve performance over time.

For volatile substances, ATEX-compliant versions with a spark-free interior help mitigate risks in sensitive areas. In terms of compliance, the range aligns, depending on the model, with DIN 13277 (refrigeration equipment for laboratories and medical use), ensuring accuracy, reliable alarms and resilience during door openings.

Sample security is central to the design: visual/audible alarms, door-open alarm, volt-free contact, communication interfaces, integrated or optional data logging, and Liebherr SmartMonitoring for remote supervision, data history and export. The interior is engineered for cleanability (rounded corners, durable materials), high load-bearing shelves, a lockable, ergonomic door and components rated for intensive use.

Committed to sustainability, the brand favours natural refrigerants (R600a, R290) and energy optimisation, without compromising temperature performance. Day to day, this translates into reliable, economical appliances ready for the needs of R&D, QC, hospital laboratories and the food industry, backed by pan-European support and spare-parts availability that secure long-term operation.
