Safety cabinets

Safety cabinets are enclosures that store hazardous materials or contain hazardous work, built to protect laboratory staff, samples and the room from fire, fumes or biological agents. The term covers two distinct jobs: passive storage units that hold flammable or corrosive chemicals behind fire-rated walls, and ventilated biological safety cabinets that draw contaminated air through filters while an operator works. The Questpair catalogue holds 830 safety cabinet listings from 18 verified suppliers and distributors across 8 countries. New, used and refurbished units all appear, and 89 percent of the listings are used. Prices run from EUR 17 to EUR 21.316, a span that reflects how far apart a small storage locker and a certified laminar-flow cabinet sit.
