The 25-well 5×5 grid holds each vial upright in a defined numbered position, enabling individual vial access without disturbing adjacent vials — a critical feature for biobank and biorepository programs where random-access retrieval of individual specimens is a daily workflow requirement. The white cardboard surface accepts permanent marker, adhesive labels, and printed box tags for batch identification, position mapping, and chain-of-custody documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCardboard construction is the material standard for laboratory freezer storage boxes at -20°C and -80°C — cardboard's low thermal mass and dimensional stability under repeated freeze-thaw cycling outperform many polymer alternatives for dense freezer drawer stacking. The box geometry is designed to stack neatly in standard -80°C upright freezer drawers and -20°C chest freezer baskets, maximizing the number of vials stored per linear foot of freezer shelf space — a critical procurement consideration for biorepository programs managing tens of thousands of archived specimens.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt $51.32 per 12\/Bag — $4.2766 per box — the delivers organized cryo vial archiving at economics that support single-use-per-aliquoting-run allocation without reuse overhead.
