100% Protection
The equivalent of RoSS for small scales – hard, manipulation-safe shell!
Scale down to one single drop of drug substance! RoSS.KSET offers the protection for drug substances less than 250 mL.
For anything above, RoSS can protect one or multiple small single use bags in one shell.
In RoSS.KSET, single use bags are covered with one layer of soft 3D foam. This offers protection and dampens shocks. Furthermore it allows for an expansion of the liquid volume and the bag in the freezing process and immobilizes the frozen bag in the hardened foam. An innovative and intuitive sealing system is a further feature to warrant functionality and safety.
The RoSS.KSET unit is made of high-density stainless steel. The container can be locked and tamper-evidence sealed. This guarantees absolute protection against manipulation as well as intuitive handling at the same time.
Advantages of the stainless steel construction:
- Stainless steel offers maximum durability and extreme strength.
- When in direct extensive contact with the bag, it is the ideal basis to keep the freezing process effective from the beginning all the way to the end and allows for a gentle thawing process.
- The stainless steel shell is safe up to temperatures of -196°C / -320°F.
Facts about the RoSS.KSET:
- A container for all standard compact 2D single-use bags (e.g. Origen, Miltenyi Biotec, …) and all sizes
- Robust and closed construction with temperature regulation, to secure the single-use bag
- 3D foam offers extra space and protects the sensible connection of raw bag and tubing – complete immobilization < 0°C / 32°F
- Space for satellite samples/ID bags/vials
- Sealable locking system protects against manipulation
- Suitable for cells (Apheresis), viruses and DP bags
- L2 DEWAR/Shipper compatible
- Stainless steel container for consistent and quickest possible freezing and thawing
- High density, which means compact measurements of the shipping unit
- Ease of use during the recycling process – no composite materials
- Robust locking-/opening mechanism with clear indicator
- Open/locked clearly indicated
- Easy to lock with thick gloves
- Special lock to minimize risk of pinching and of damaging the single-use bag
Like an amulet, RoSS.KSET carries its content softly covered and protected around the globe.
In case you are searching for a solution that carries one bigger or multiple smaller single-use bags, check out the RoSS shell as alternative option for CGT applications.
RoSS.KSET RACK | Protect & Ship
How can RoSS.KSET RACK protect small scale single use bags?
Highly robust and compact – a CGT (cell & gene therapy) vault for standard shipper systems.
In a first step, we developed a suitable RoSS.KSET based on standard single use bag sizes that, in a second step, can be manufactured according to required capacity needs of the RACK units.
The Rack for RoSS.KSETs has been developed for the safe placement of all standard manufacturers (Cryoport, Savsu, …) in shippers for transport or storage and is able to withstand temperatures up to -196°C / -320°F.
The main construction material is high-density stainless steel. It is compact, lockable, safe to freeze, sealable, and thus protected against manipulation.
Another step towards 0% product loss and thus 100% patient safety!

FAQ
Should I fill the biocontainer inside the shell or outside the shell?
Yes, both options are possible. Either fill the bag and place it in the RoSS® System or place the empty bag in the system and fill it with a fully automated filling system, compact and with little air. Learn more about RoSS.FILL.
How does a CCU (Cryo Control Unit) work?
We developed a system called Cryo Control Unit (CCU) which is an insolation material styro foam piece that covers the shoulders of the single-use bioprocess container and the shell. CCU is meant for enabling the use of RoSS® shells in standard lab freezers or in blast freezers.
