LifeLine Cryogenics

LifeLine was founded in 1991 and offered a wide variety of storage options. The company started processing cord blood in 2002 and had over 4,000 stem cell units stored in its facility.

In 2015, LifeLine Cryogenics was acquired by California Cryobank and became part of its FamilyCord brand. California Cryobank and Cord Blood Registry were simultaneously acquired in 2018 by an investment firm, and FamilyCord and CBR merged under the Cord Blood Registry brand.
