A LEGACY OF INNOVATION AND EXCELLENCE

PHCbi products are built on a foundation of product innovation and excellence that dates back to 1966, when Sanyo Electric introduced Japan's first pharmaceutical refrigerator, setting a new benchmark for quality in biomedical storage. Over the decades, our technology has evolved through continuous innovation and a steadfast commitment to reliability in laboratory research.

Originally developed and sold under the Sanyo and Panasonic brands, PHCbi products have earned a global reputation for exceptional performance. Today we continue to support and service legacy equipment while expanding our portfolio to meet the evolving needs of modern laboratories.

1966: Sanyo Electric pioneers the pharmaceutical-grade refrigerator setting the standard for quality and innovation in biomedical research.
2012: Panasonic Healthcare acquires Sanyo's healthcare division, ushering in a new era of advanced preservation and incubator technologies.
2014: Panasonic Healthcare is carved out from Panasonic Group.
