Big Announcement: Meling’s -86° Ultra Low Temperature Freezer Earns ENERGY STAR Certification for Energy Efficiency
- December 31, 2025
- Last Updated: January 1, 2026
Ultra‑low temperature storage is essential in laboratories, research institutions, medical facilities, and biotech environments but historically comes with high energy costs and environmental impact. Today, LabConsulting is excited to highlight a major development that redefines ultra‑low temperature cold storage: the ENERGY STAR‑certified -86° Ultra Low Temperature Freezer from Meling, now available through LabConsulting. This certification confirms that this freezer meets rigorous standards for energy efficiency, performance, and sustainability, making it one of the best ultra‑low temperature freezers on the market.
Why the ENERGY STAR Certification Matters for Labs

The ENERGY STAR certification is a globally recognized symbol for energy efficiency awarded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Products that earn this certification have met strict performance criteria for energy consumption and environmental impact, a key consideration for equipment like ULT freezers that run continuously. ENERGY STAR‑certified laboratory-grade freezers can significantly reduce energy use and lower utility costs without compromising performance.
In laboratories where ultra‑low temperature freezers traditionally draw large amounts of energy, often comparable to a household’s daily electricity usage, the Meling -86℃ Freezer stands out by combining top‑tier performance with reduced energy demand.
