These days several Pharmaceutical companies are moving to single use, flexible film isolators for containment of potent compounds during Pharmaceutical processing. Flexible film isolators have also been used for aseptic processes, like sterility testing.

Typical enclosure material can be polyvinylchloride or polyurethane. The glove sleeves are often made of the same materials and are part of the enclosure. Air passes through inlet and outlet filters.
