Passive cold chain, −196 °C to +8 °C

−196 °C to +8 °C. In your hand.

Under 5 kg, any orientation, no power, and nothing to pre-condition. In validated use cases, customers cut total shipping cost by more than 40%.Under 5 kg, any orientation, no power. In validated use cases, total shipping cost falls by more than 40%.

+8 °C−20−67−78−196 °C

Five cartridges, one container.

One device covers the whole range. The cartridge you load sets the temperature, and every cartridge ships in the box.

Under 5 kg fully loaded for Multi-Temperature, under 4 kg for the LN₂ edition. IATA-compliant and cabin-bag compatible.

Established during manufacturing and fully welded shut, so it does not decay over time and never needs re-pumping.

What changes for you.

Conventional cold chain is designed around the shipment. Crìa is designed around the payload.

>40%lower shipping cost, in validated use cases

Forget what cold chain used to cost you.

Less coolant for the same hold, so every shipment is smaller and lighter.

Arrives the way it left.

Predictable cold life, any orientation, and a trip record you can show.

Minutesto prepare, instead of a day

Ready in minutes, not a day.

No pre-conditioning and no cool-down, even for LN₂.

>50%lower CO₂ per shipment, in validated use cases

Reusable, trip after trip.

Reusable container, reusable coolant, no single-use packaging.

See every shipment. Prove every trip.

Every Crìa Go pairs with a Bluetooth datalogger and a companion app. Track payload and ambient temperature, catch handling shocks, and export a full record for each trip. Monitoring and handling only: the container stays fully passive, with no active cooling and no power.Every Crìa Go pairs with a Bluetooth datalogger and app. Track temperature, catch handling shocks, export a record for each trip.

Products

Two containers, one vacuum core.

The same fully-welded high-vacuum core, packaged for two jobs: carry-on personal transport, and compact logistics shipping.

Below a billionth of an atmosphere, heat runs out of road.

Crìa holds its gap between 10⁻⁶ and 10⁻⁹ mbar, below a billionth of an atmosphere, and reaching toward a trillionth. Deep in the molecular-flow regime, convection and gas conduction vanish and every reflective foil stays fully active. It requires no cryopumping, it can be handled in any orientation, and the vacuum does not decay over time.Crìa holds its gap between 10⁻⁶ and 10⁻⁹ mbar.

Use cases

Where Crìa is used.

Cold chain that reaches places it could not reach before, at any setpoint, on or off the grid.

Sustainability.

Crìa exists to make the cold chain lighter on the planet, and to carry critical biological materials to the places conventional logistics abandon, including the more than a billion people who live without reliable power.

The same physics that lets Crìa reach further also lets it waste less. One reusable device replaces a stream of single-use boxes and discarded coolant.

1B+
people live without reliable electricity, the off-grid reach Crìa is built for.
