Scope

This document specifies classification, performance requirements and test methods for indoor prefabricated (semi-)automatic refrigerating and freezing cold stores assembled with insulated panels and mechanical refrigeration systems. t applies to cold stores for storing human/non-human biological materials, vaccines, blood products and chemical compounds.

Purpose

With the rapid development of biobanking, life sciences and biopharmaceutical industries worldwide, (semi-)automatic refrigerating and freezing cold stores have become critical infrastructure for preserving high-value biological samples, vaccines, blood products and chemical compounds. These systems are characterized by precise temperature control, automated sample access and intelligent management, and are widely deployed across global biobanking and medical applications.

This proposal aims to develop a unified international standard that specifies classification, performance requirements and test methods for (semi-)automatic medical cold stores. It will provide a consistent technical basis for manufacturers, testing bodies and end users, ensuring sample safety and supporting the sustainable development of the global biomedical industry.
