Greener centrifuges for smarter diagnostics

16 Mar, 2026

Ohaus Corporation introduces its latest Frontier IVD centrifuge range, combining high-performance laboratory separation with eco-conscious design. Built to meet the rigorous requirements of clinical diagnostics, the Multi-Pro, Multi, and Micro IVD Series are fully compliant with the EU’s In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation (2017/746, Class A).

At the heart of this launch is sustainability. These centrifuges use R290, a natural refrigerant with a Global Warming Potential of just 3 - over 700 times lower than traditional synthetic coolants. This eco-friendly approach lowers environmental impact without compromising cooling efficiency or laboratory safety.

Designed for precision, these IVD centrifuges support a wide range of clinical applications, from hospitals to diagnostic centres. With in vitro tests influencing around 70% of medical decisions, consistent, reliable sample separation is essential. Ohaus’s Frontier IVD Series delivers exactly that, pairing robust performance with forward-looking environmental responsibility.

By adopting low-GWP refrigerants and fully integrating IVD compliance, Ohaus enables laboratories to meet current regulatory standards while anticipating future sustainability requirements - a practical solution for healthcare providers who value reliability and responsibility.
