Zero Point Cryogenics

Zero Point Cryogenics (ZPC), based in Edmonton, is the only Canadian manufacturer of dilution refrigerators, growing rapidly to meet increasing demand for quantum computing cryogenics. In 2025, the company received a U.S. patent for a breakthrough Phase Separation Refrigerator enabling continuous cooling to 500 millikelvin without requiring large volumes of helium-3 - the first new cooling mechanism invented in sixty years. The system uses helium-3/helium-4 mixture with a simplified evaporation-based technique, with deployment to university and government labs starting Spring 2026. ZPC's Model I cryogen-free dilution refrigerator serves quantum computing and sensing research, and the company built a Canadian-made dilution refrigerator for the National Research Council. Products include premium customizable dilution refrigerators designed for quantum technology applications, addressing North American demand with shorter delivery times and local support compared to European suppliers.
