Panel And Ceiling Systems For Biosafety Laboratories
Arcoplast's advanced composite materials offer superior barrier solutions for Biosafety laboratories (BSLs) facilities, ensuring compliance with strict safety guidelines and providing a secure workspace.
BSLs, depending on their level, must meet and conform to specific NIH, CDC and biological safety guidelines associated with work and research on infectious materials, toxins, and exotic/dangerous agents. Containment areas such as BSL suites, anterooms, airlock, showers and laboratory rooms, necropsy and procedure rooms in these high-risk, high-containment facilities require hermetically sealed environments capable of withstanding decontamination procedures and preventing infectious materials escaping.
There are several hygienic practices that contribute to the successful operation of a BSL facility, such as protective clothing, negative / positive air pressure, emergency backup systems, etc. Yet none are effective without properly constructed barriers in place to contain them.
Arcoplast has introduced the emerging technology of composite materials into the world of biosafety, biomedical and microbiological laboratories to create effective barrier systems through the use of superior architectural panels and sealants.
Our wall and ceiling systems allow architects, planners, and designers to create the internal shells for maximum containment facilities in accordance to laboratory biosafety guidelines at all levels : BSL-2, BSL-3, BSL-3AG, ABSL-3, BSL-4.
