Walk-in fume cupboards or ventilated enclosures are designed to house heavy equipment like bioreactors and drum mixers. It supports access to the workspace at high and low levels, allowing your staff to position their testing apparatus without the risk of injury. At TION, We manufacture both ducted and ductless models using 100% medical-grade welded polypropylene.
This makes our products corrosion-proof and extends their life span by up to ten years compared with mild steel. 90% of the fume cabinets we supply feature bespoke design elements to them. However, we also offer standard "off-the-shelf" models for basic applications.
Safety is a paramount concern in any modern laboratory. TION's specialist engineers have experience installing and commissioning ducted & ductless walk-in fume cupboards to the highest safety standards. All of our ductwork is DW 154 certified and complies with strict BS EN 14175 and ASHRAE 110-1995 standards.
We independently test and certify our cabinets. In addition to offering a broad range of maintenance and commissioning services to keep your equipment operational. We are determined to stay at the forefront of innovation in the fume extraction industry. Our commitment to designing a high-quality product and maintaining that product is absolute. We will consider every detail of your requirements before designing a suitable solution.
Lighting is of critical importance when it comes to walk-in cabinets, as you need to ensure safe practice. The most suitable choice of lighting is LED. It lasts longer than older fluorescent types and saves energy.
Taps
Any quantity and location of taps (gas, water, vacuum, nitrogen etc.)
Power Sockets
Any quantity and location, including specific types (high current etc.)
Sinks
Can be set into the side of the unit to provide drainage points
The most frequently used material when constructing fume cabinets is polypropylene. However, we do offer alternatives for walk-in cupboards, as we know the material will depend on the application.
Lining materials
The large front opening grants easy access to mobile benches and trolleys. The metal-free construction* also ensures zero corrosion. This makes the cabinets ideal for applications** involving corrosive substances. A variety of linings are available.
Options available:
*metal option available if required **Except radioactive materials – we would use a Stainless Steel lining for that application – or high heat applications when we would use metal.
Numerous options are available as follows:
Filters (for ductless models)
Shelves
Our control panel software features a unique red-light alarm system. This can be programmed to track air inflow and downflow, annual testing dates, UV light timers, and filter replacements. Contact our team for a free product demonstration today.
We often get asked about the practicality of manufacturing our fume cupboards from polypropylene, but the answer is surprisingly straightforward. The material is simple to maintain and clean. It's also mechanically rugged and features a high chemical resistance when compared with other metals and plastics.

"Seldom have I worked with such a knowledgeable team. No matter the challenge, TION's attention to detail and professionalism has always impressed me."
"TION Global's polypropylene wash-down fume cupboards are one of the few products able to manage perchloric acid's explosive properties."
"The polypropylene cabinet material is perfect. It's stain resistant, even against chemicals like iodine (potassium iodide). It's also incredibly easy to clean."
