Enhance Safety with Laboratory Fume Hoods

Fume hood cabinets help to reduce exposure to hazardous or toxic fumes. They protect the laboratory environment as well as the workers when used for laboratory safety. Navigating the types of fume hood cabinets can be confusing and tricky when trying to find the one that is perfect for your application. General-purpose hoods, ducted fume hoods, vented enclosures, extractor systems, biosafety, and PCR enclosures all have their advantages and disadvantages when considering the laboratory. Read on to find out more about different types and how they can help you.

How to Choose a Fume Hood Cabinet

The best place to start when choosing a fume hood cabinet is to establish whether you are protecting staff, products, or both. If the goal is to protect the products, then you will likely need a horizontal or vertical clean bench or a PCR enclosure. If the goal is to protect staff from the chemicals used, then fume extractor or ducted/ductless chemical hood will be needed. If using a powder, a fume extractor or vented enclosure is recommended. A Class I biosafety cabinet is required when using biologicals, but a Class II biosafety cabinet is needed if you are safeguarding employees and products.

Biosafety and PCR Enclosures

These protect the user while allowing the handling of delicate substances. When entering the cabinet, the air is HEPA filtered and can be filtered again or discharged outside when exiting. They can be used to manipulate hazardous, but sensitive biological materials.

With laboratory furniture being such a large investment, it is important to purchase from lab furniture suppliers that can provide durable and long-lasting laboratory products. Buying from expert laboratory furniture manufacturers is a smart investment and will save you money in the long run. High-quality lab furniture that you can count on can be the difference between a smooth, productive workday and a long, miserable one.

Replace Worn Countertops

Before heavily investing in new lab furniture you may want to consider replacing the countertops. If the current casework is in pretty good shape, but the counters are damaged due to spills and accidents it might be a good idea to just replace them. Replacing worn countertops will instantly renew the appearance of your lab and restore functionality while being extremely budget friendly. Many lab furniture suppliers offer new countertops at a fraction of the price of all new casework.

Modular Lab Furniture

As laboratory technology continues to develop at a lightspeed pace the result is many labs are converting to modular laboratory furniture. Modular furniture is very adaptive and can be reconfigured quickly to allow for new methodologies and advancements in current technology. With modular laboratory products, you can be sure that your lab is always set up and running as efficiently as possible.

Lab Wall Cabinets to Upgrade Your Workspace

A simple but effective way to make your lab more efficient is to add storage space. Extra space to store materials, tools, and other implements remove clutter from the benches. This results in not only a smoother and more productive workflow, but also reduce the likelihood of accidents while on the job. Lab wall cabinets such as a wall cabinet with sliding doors can be an investment that pays for itself in days. In fact, buying wall cabinets online has never been easier with CatLabPro. Our expertly crafted lab wall cabinets will not only improve your workspace, but will last a lifetime and look beautiful doing so!

Simple But Effective

Many labs around the country suffer from a lack of storage space. This leads to clutter on the workbench with raw materials such as chemicals, parts, etc. right on top of their lab work. Not only does this create inefficiency, but it can also lead to workplace accidents that can create injuries. The easiest way to mitigate this to add lab wall cabinets giving lab technicians a place to reliably store chemicals and components out of the workspace. A wall cabinet with sliding doors can also be an excellent addition to the lab because you can easily see everything located within. Additionally, sliding doors allow you to open the door without the possibility of hitting or knocking something over.
