MVE Biological Solutions, A Cryoport Company, Introduces Real-Time Integrated Condition Monitoring Systems For Cryogenic Dewars

Rhea-AI Summary

MVE Biological Solutions (NASDAQ: CYRX) unveiled integrated real-time condition monitoring for its MVE SC 4/2 V and 4/3 V cryogenic dewars on Oct 7, 2025. The systems embed SmartTag (LTE, up to 120 days battery) or CryoBeacon (BLE 5.0, logs to –200°C plus ambient humidity) into dewar lids and stream data to MVECloud, an FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and GAMP 5 compliant web/mobile platform offering visibility, real-time alerts, QR-based data retrieval, and reporting.

The launch positions MVE to offer connected assets for shipments and stationary storage and to pursue services and potential subscription-based revenue as part of Cryoport's broader monitoring strategy.

Insights

Product Strategy Analyst

MVE added embedded BLE and LTE monitoring to dewars and a compliant cloud platform, positioning for subscription services.

Combining built-in SmartTag (LTE, ~120-day battery) and CryoBeacon (BLE 5.0, logs to –200°C) with the FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and GAMP 5 compliant MVECloud creates an integrated product+service offering. The integrated devices provide continuous or on‑demand temperature, humidity and ambient data and QR-based retrieval, converting physical dewars into connected assets that deliver centralized visibility and real-time alerts.

Key dependencies and risks include successful customer adoption of embedded telemetry, device reliability at cryogenic temperatures, and secure cloud operations consistent with regulatory compliance. The statement that this capability "lays the foundation for more connected, comprehensive monitoring" ties future commercial upside to converting hardware sales into subscription-based revenue, which requires scalable service delivery and clear pricing/contracting.

Concrete items to watch: uptake and pricing of the announced subscription services, the pace of embedding SmartTag/CryoBeacon across the MVE product line, and operational metrics around device uptime and data integrity. Near-term signals will be product shipments with integrated tags and initial service enrollments; medium-term signals will be recurring revenue reports and customer case examples.

Connected, Intelligent Condition Monitoring Assets that Safeguard Vital Life Science Materials Mark MVE's First Step in its Real-Time Integrated Systems Evolution

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryoport, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYRX), a global leader in supply chain solutions for the life sciences, today announced the unveiling of MVE Biological Solutions' ("MVE") integrated Condition Monitoring Solutions for its MVE SC 4/2 V and 4/3 V series dewars, both powered by Tec4Med, another Cryoport company. This launch reflects MVE's commitment to support the life sciences with intelligent, connected assets to safeguard vital commodities.

Combining MVE's trusted cryogenic systems with advanced condition monitoring technology, the new monitoring and visibility systems integrate either a SmartTag^TM or CryoBeacon^TM, built directly into dewar lids, to provide centralized condition monitoring. All collected data is managed within the MVECloud^TM, a secure web- and mobile-based FDA 21 CFR Part 11, GAMP 5 compliant platform that provides visibility, real time alerts, and reporting on the cryogenic environment in which commodities are stored.

The CryoBeacon is a long-range Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5.0 device that logs internal temperatures as low as –200°C, along with ambient temperature and humidity. Users can instantly retrieve data by scanning a QR code, making it easy to monitor both shipments and stationary storage equipment. The MVE SmartTag is a real-time condition-monitoring device with Long Term Evolution (LTE) connectivity and up to 120 days of battery life. It provides continuous visibility and alerts during transport or storage.

"We've integrated monitoring technology directly into our dewars so customers can manage their critical biological materials with confidence," said Mike Duich, President and CEO of MVE. "SmartTag and CryoBeacon not only simplify monitoring and reporting but empower our customers with the visibility and control they've been asking for. SmartTag and CryoBeacon are just the beginning as we move towards an exciting future where every MVE product is smart, connected, and designed to give our customers an increasingly greater peace of mind."

Jerrell Shelton, Chairman & CEO of Cryoport, added, "By introducing SmartTag and CryoBeacon, powered by Tec4med, MVE is further extending its market-leading position utilizing advanced technology and integrated monitoring solutions that enable it to enter into services and generate subscription-based revenue. This development by MVE aligns with Cryoport's broader strategy to equip customers with advanced tools that help manage their sensitive and valuable biological materials and lays the foundation for more connected, comprehensive monitoring and visibility solutions in the future."
