Market Insights
Technological Advancements in Medical Refrigerators Drives Medical Refrigerators Market Growth
The healthcare sector is witnessing massive developments accelerating the adoption and acceptance of medical refrigerators. As a result, the companies focus on manufacturing energy-efficient natural refrigerants and inverter compressors to effectively reduce power consumption through slow-speed rotation control. In December 2016, Panasonic introduced the VIP Ultra, a low-temperature freezer that uses hydrocarbon refrigerants to minimize energy consumption and reduce environmental impact. In July 2018, PHC Corporation launched the VIP ECO series of new −85°C ultra-low temperature freezers in the Japanese market. These freezers, including models MDF-DU702VHS1-PJ and DU502VHS1-PJ (single-phase 100V), use natural refrigerants and new inverter compressors, and they are mainly designed for pharmaceutical companies, research, and medical institutions. Furthermore, in December 2019, PHCbi launched a new ultralow-temperature freezer named MDF-DU901VHL (large 900 L) that features the latest cabinet design and intuitive LCD control in the ECO version. Also, the freezers operate by managing energy consumption and balancing temperature performance.
Biological research specimens need storage at temperatures below −80°C, i.e., at ultralow temperature (ULT) values. The ULT feature provides an alternative to standard compressor-based cooling technology that keeps improving with advanced technology. Innovative products offered by Haier Biomedical include smart frequency conversion technology ULT freezers that are presumed to achieve an unparalleled energy consumption figure of just 8.2 Kwhr/day with a unit capacity of 829 L/29.2 ft3. In May 2018, PHCbi, with its distributor, SIFO Technology Corporation, introduced its new VIP, TwinGuard Deep Freezers at Kaohsiung International Instruments & Chemtech Expo.
Similarly, other technologies such as unique default passwords for smart freezers, shared freezers, solid-state cooling, 2D barcode systems, and mobile lab freezers are gathering significant attention.

Medical refrigerators are used to store vaccines, pharmaceuticals, chemotherapeutics, blood, plasma, and other samples that require tight temperature control. These are more reliable products for the storage of medicinal products as they emit less heat and less sound into the room. Rising occurrence of hematological disorders and an increment in the number of accidents have increased the requirement for plasma for employment in plasma fractionation operations. In return, this requirement has led to an increase in requirements for plasma freezers and refrigerators at the blood bank. These features are boosting demand for blood bank development worldwide. Thus, driving demand for medical refrigerators for pharmaceutical and laboratory use.
