CryoSTUCK® – Cryogenic Laser Labels for Frozen Vials and Containers
These cryogenic labels are designed to be applied directly, and will rapidly adhere, to frozen cryo vials, tubes, cryo boxes, as well as plastic and cardboard freezer boxes, which are difficult to label under deep-freeze conditions (as low as -80°C/-112°F). Designed for long-term preservation in liquid nitrogen (-196°C/-321°F), -80°C (-112°F) freezers, for dry ice transportation, and can withstand temperatures up to +100°C (+212°F)*.
Printable with all common brands of laser printers to obtain a sharp, smudge-proof printout that is also resistant to mild laboratory chemicals (spray and swab). They can be applied on frozen vials and tubes without the need of an overlap and can also be written on with our Cryo-Markers.
*These labels have been tested to withstand up to 2 hours of 150°C/302°F dry heat. Some softening of the adhesive is observed, which is restored when the label is returned to ambient conditions.
Benefits:
- Ideal for identifying temperature sensitive samples, no thawing of container or cure time required
- Perfect for long-term storage in cryogenic conditions (-196°C) and ultra-low temperature freezers (no overlap nor extra lamination needed)
- Quick template set-up, and printable with office and desktop laser printers (will not jam printers)

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, laser CryoSTUCK labels are designed for on-demand printing. They allow for only a few labels to be printed while saving the rest for later. These laser labels can withstand multiple passes in desktop laser printers and will not peel-off or jam the printer.
No, an overlap is not required for proper adhesion of these cryogenic labels on ambient or frozen curved and flat surfaces.
Yes, laser CryoSTUCK labels have been specially designed to identify already frozen surfaces. They can be affixed at a minimum temperature of -80°C/-112°F, eliminating the need to thaw valuable samples.
To ensure proper application of these labels, wipe the surface with a clean lint-free disposable wipe (e.g: KimWipe™) prior to affixing the label, to remove excess frost. Apply the edge of the label first and press firmly to anchor it, while avoiding excessive contact with the adhesive. Then press the label securely into position along the vials’ entire circumference.
Yes, CryoSTUCK labels can be used to label samples prior to storing them in low temperature freezers and liquid nitrogen tanks for prolonged periods.
No, the vials can be stored in liquid nitrogen (-196°C/-321°F) or ultra-low temperature freezers (-80°C/-112°F) immediately following label application, requiring no cure time.
