About Stirling Ultracold
Manufactured and developed by Global Cooling, Inc. in Athens, OH, Stirling Ultracold’s ultra-low temperature freezer products feature the industry’s first reliable cooling technology, using the free-piston Stirling engine. This innovation has allowed the company to provide a new generation of environmentally-friendly ULT freezers that achieve stable storage conditions over a wide temperature range. Using less than one third the electric power of standard compressor-based ULT freezers, as confirmed by independent, ENERGY STAR® protocol testing, Stirling Ultracold freezers were also the first in the U.S. to use 100 percent natural refrigerants.
In addition to the Model SU780XLE upright and SU105UE undercounter freezers, Stirling Ultracold offers the easily transportable Shuttle™ Model ULT-25NE, which is the only portable ULT solution for remote clinical trials and biologic drug delivery.
