Tempshield CRYO-APRON® at a glance
What is this product?
The Tempshield CRYO-APRON® is a multi-layer cryogenic apron that protects your torso and upper legs from cryogenic liquid splashes and contact cold down to -196°C (-320°F). The waterproof outer shell, thermal insulation layers, and adjustable fit system work together to provide CE Cat. III certified protection. Available in 36", 42", 48", and 54" lengths.
Who is it for?
Anyone regularly handling cryogenic liquids - liquid nitrogen, liquid argon, liquid helium, liquid CO₂ - in research labs, biobanks, cryogenic storage facilities, medical facilities, and industrial settings. Also relevant for lab managers and safety officers equipping new cryogenic stations or replacing worn PPE.
What does it do?
Shields your body from cryogenic splashes during liquid transfers, dewar filling, sample retrieval, and routine cryogenic liquid handling. Provides thermal protection from contact cold and reduces injury risk in the event of a spill or splash.
What are the benefits in your workplace?
Certified protection that meets EU safety standards. A properly sized apron closes the gap between your gloves and your lab coat. Quick-release buckles mean you can remove it in seconds if you need to. Breathable construction means you'll actually wear it. Tempshield is a brand with a genuine reputation in cryogenic PPE.
What problems does it solve?
Working with liquid nitrogen without adequate torso protection. A standard lab coat offers almost no real barrier against cryogenic liquid. Using an oversized or undersized apron that leaves your abdomen or upper legs exposed. Not having a certified piece of PPE to document for compliance purposes.
What are your next steps?
Measure your torso length and choose your size. Add to cart, or contact us for institutional or volume pricing.
Working with cryogenic liquids is one of the more genuinely hazardous routine tasks in a lab. Liquid nitrogen boils at -196°C and causes serious tissue damage on contact - and splashes happen. The CRYO-APRON® from Tempshield is the right tool for this job: certified protection, from a brand that specializes in exactly this type of PPE, at a price that doesn't require a capital equipment justification.
Suitable for...
