Cryogenics Division
When "Operation Flood" (a program to produce more milk in the country) was introduced in India, new technology from the Western world was adopted. One new implementation was storing bull's semen in liquid nitrogen containers. The temperature of liquid nitrogen is minus 196 degrees Celsius. The liquid nitrogen containers are similar to thermos flasks used for storing hot water, but have advanced insulation technology to keep the liquid nitrogen cool at minus 196 degrees Celsius. For a long long time, IBP was the only company manufacturing this technology item in India. Only recently has a private player entered the market. Still, IBP is the market leader as of today (2008).

Famous quotes containing the word division:
“The division between the useful arts and the fine arts must not be understood in too absolute a manner. In the humblest work of the craftsmen, if art is there, there is a concern for beauty, through a kind of indirect repercussion that the requirements of the creativity of the spirit exercise upon the production of an object to serve human needs.”
—Jacques Maritain (1882–1973)
