Cold Regions Research Engineering Laboratory (CRREL)

The Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) is a research facility operated by the U.S. Army that focuses on understanding and solving engineering challenges in cold and icy environments. Their work includes developing technologies for building and maintaining infrastructure in snow, ice, and permafrost, as well as studying Arctic conditions and climate impacts. CRREL’s research supports national defense, environmental protection, and scientific advancement in cold regions, helping to improve safety, resilience, and operational capabilities in some of the harshest climates on Earth.
