Roemer Industries, Inc. is a manufacturer of ruggedized, portable medical refrigerator/freezer units. Our ongoing objective is to continue evolving and developing innovative, energy efficient, small, human transportable refrigeration systems for field medical operations. <br><br>Our current JR60 model can be a direct, modern, spec for spec replacement of the currently fielded and outdated HemaCool HMC-MIL-1, described in SBIR N162-081. We can utilize funding from this SBIR to research and develop further innovations to make our JR60 model meet and exceed the needs of the DOD. The results from this SBIR will allow us to adapt these innovations throughout our entire lineup of units: ranging from sizes of 3 to 100 liters. <br><br>This entire lineup will allow the DOD to re-conceptualize their portable cold-chain strategy by expanding the overall cold-chain footprint:<br><br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Meet the growing logistics demand of smaller scale temperature sensitive payloads. <br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Have refrigeration units further forward into the fight.<br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Added layer of contingency, flexibility, and redundancy.<br><br>Anticipated peace time application:<br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>NGO<br><br>Anticipated commercial application:<br><br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Hospitals<br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Disaster Preparedness Organizations<br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Mobile Immunization Programs<br><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'></span>Blood Banks<br>.
