A context would be very helpful here but maybe you are looking for the word cryogenic:
Main Entry: cryo·gen·ic
Pronunciation: "krI-&-'je-nik
Function: adjective
Date: 1896
1 a : of or relating to the production of very low temperatures b : being or relating to very low temperatures
2 a : requiring or involving the use of a cryogenic temperature b : requiring cryogenic storage c : suitable for storage of a cryogenic substance

You can always email us back if you were looking for another term... Hope this word helps though. ;)

Kieran
