Areas of labs used for washing glassware and other lab equipment generally end up looking shabby in a short period of time – especially around the rear of a sink. Our stations, cabinets and carts offer a waterproof, chemical resistant and easy to maintain solution – see below comparison table for further information.
Created by welding virgin medical grade polypropylene*, our lab furniture is not only proof against corrosion, but it is also resistant to UV degradation (which affects PVC/GRP), is very easy to clean – and it looks great!
We use metal-free hinges and runners as standard and can fit them with metal-free locks/catches if required as well sinks, taps, peg-board draining racks, drawers and shelves upon request. We can also fit them with our Lab-Cushion® system to prevent breakages in sinks and blocked drains and/or Bench-Armour® heat-proof surface matting.
Integrated sumps contain potential spillages (sumps can be made to any capacity) and we can include rear duct connections to the cupboards if required for chemical storage along with castors for future-proofing your lab layout.
Carts can be made for any purpose including chemical containment during transport.
We don’t publish sizes as these units can be made to literally ANY height, width or depth without any bespoke charge. This makes them ideal for retro-fitting into existing laboratory layouts or for suiting any bespoke requirements for proposed new or refurbished laboratories.
*We can manufacture these units from PPS (which has a V0 flame retardant properties) if required.
