High-performance centrifuges with sustainable cooling

30 May, 2025

Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced its most sustainable large-capacity and superspeed centrifuges to date, designed to support reliable sample preparation while reducing environmental impact. The new Thermo Scientific™ Cryofuge™, BIOS, and LYNX centrifuge lines feature GreenCool™ Technology – a next-generation natural refrigerant system with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 1, complying with EU and US EPA F-gas regulations.

These centrifuges offer up to 15% energy savings compared to previous models and are manufactured at Thermo Fisher’s zero-waste site in Osterode am Harz, Germany, which runs entirely on renewable energy.

With lighter, quieter builds and advanced temperature control, the new centrifuges provide high-performance, energy-efficient sample processing for blood banking, bioprocessing, and life science research. Users can expect precise, reproducible separations with improved ergonomics and intuitive interfaces, all while supporting greener lab operations.

The Cryofuge 8 and 16 models are tailored for blood banking, combining strong sample security with improved sustainability. BIOS centrifuges deliver high-throughput performance for large-volume bioprocessing applications, while LYNX 4000 and 6000 superspeed models ensure reliable results for temperature-sensitive samples in complex research workflows.

“As the leader in large-capacity and superspeed centrifugation, we’re proud to offer sustainable solutions without compromising quality or reliability,” said Thomas Doerdelmann, VP and GM at Thermo Fisher Scientific.

These models replace the previous Sorvall line and represent a shift toward environmentally conscious sample processing across labs and production facilities.
