Cryogenic storage solutions are engineered systems for safely storing liquefied gases such as LNG, liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and helium at extremely low temperatures below −150°C using vacuum-insulated pressure vessel technology.
DSW is a trusted cryogenic storage systems supplier, providing high-quality vacuum-insulated tanks for liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and helium.
With over 20 years of experience, we deliver customized industrial gas storage solutions worldwide.

What Are Cryogenic Storage Solutions?

Cryogenic storage solutions are integrated systems designed to store, transport, and supply liquefied gases under ultra-low temperature conditions while maintaining safety, efficiency, and product purity.

These systems typically include vacuum-insulated cryogenic tanks, pressure control systems, vaporizers, and boil-off gas management units.

How Cryogenic Storage Systems Work

Cryogenic storage systems use a double-wall vacuum-insulated structure to minimise heat transfer.

  • Liquefied gas is stored in an inner stainless steel vessel
  • A vacuum layer reduces heat conduction and convection
  • External heat causes controlled evaporation
  • Pressure is regulated via vaporisation systems
  • Boil-off gas is recovered or reused
