Laminar Flow Cabinets

Custom Designed Lab Enclosures

Variable width, depth, height, and a whole host of optional features allow you to make your laminar flow cabinets your own. Ensure filtered, sterile air for your lab processes.

Defending your workspace from outside contamination

Laminar flow cabinets (also referred to as cell culture hoods, tissue culture hoods, or laminar flow hoods) are specially designed laboratory enclosures. They're made from stainless steel or polypropylene with no gaps or joints, meaning that there's nowhere for harmful particles such as bacteria, spores or microbes to gather.

TION's laminar flow cabinets have many applications across a variety of sectors, including (but not limited to) the medical, industrial, electronic and pharmaceutical professions, and are frequently used to work with semiconductors, biological samples, or other materials of a sensitive nature.

Available as horizontal or vertical builds
All of our laminar flow cabinets are fully customisable and can be made without an added 'bespoke' price addition. We provide a wide array of options, including variable width, depth, height, bench-top/stand-mounted, gas taps, optional sliding sash, UV lighting and internal removable shelves.

Advanced Control Systems and Specifications

The TION control systems are built in house and are designed to work with the cabinet as one ecosystem removing the potential of breakdown between third party systems and giving greater flexibility and design.  This also means that everything can be controlled from the control panel without the requirement of multiple manual switches and buttons.

All our laminar flow fume cupboards are built with the following premium features, including the 9″ Pro Touch Screen Control Panel.

Laminar Flow Cabinet Datasheet
What's the difference between a PCR cabinet and a laminar flow hood?
While PCR cabinets use UV to sterilise the environment, laminar flow cabinets use an air-cleaning filtration system to remove any particles on the work surface, ensuring a particle-free environment. There are a couple of different types available, each with their advantages:
  • Horizontal Cabinet – The air is projected horizontally across the work area directly out of the front of the cabinet
  • Vertical Cabinet – The air is projected downward, and then across the work surface and out of the unit.
Laminar flow cabinets are normally produced to protect the working area only. They do not offer operator protection and are not suitable for working with bio-hazards. It’s also important you know the difference between biological and LAF cabinets.
