FAQs
Q: What protection do these cabinets provide?

Q: What's the difference between a biological safety cabinet and a laminar flow cabinet?

A: Our range features Esco Class II cabinets, including the Airstream Gen 3 E-Series and Labculture Plus E-Series G4, all offering full operator, product, and environmental protection.
