A fume hood is designed to contain and exhaust hazardous fumes, vapours, and airborne contaminants generated during laboratory procedures. It protects laboratory personnel by maintaining controlled airflow and reducing exposure to harmful chemicals during testing and research activities.

Ducted fume hoods remove contaminated air through an external exhaust system, releasing it outside the building. Ductless fume hoods use specialised filtration systems to purify the air before safely recirculating it back into the laboratory environment.

Santech Fume Hoods are designed to support regulatory compliance and laboratory safety requirements. Our systems align with recognised standards such as GMP and ISO guidelines, helping laboratories maintain safe, structured, and performance-driven operational environments.

Yes. Santech Fume Hoods can be customised based on laboratory size, material preference, workflow requirements, and safety considerations. Configuration options include construction materials, work surface selection, airflow design, and integrated utility fixtures for optimised laboratory functionality.

With the increasing use of dangerous chemicals, vapours, and airborne particulates in today’s laboratories, having a well-functioning laboratory fume hood is crucial. It helps ensure not only the safety of those working in it but also of the whole laboratory itself. The fume hoods developed at Santech Labs feature consistent containment performance, regulatory compliance, and outstanding durability.

As fume hood manufacturers in India, we understand the significance of these systems for the pharmaceutical industry, chemistry laboratories, biotechnology companies, research organisations, and educational institutions. Our solutions incorporate the latest technologies and customise opportunities to suit Indian laboratories according to global safety standards.

What is a Fume Hood? The Key Points to Know

A laboratory fume hood is a ventilated device designed to collect, contain, and eliminate dangerous fumes, vapors, and particulates produced during experiments. It forms a protective flow of air, preventing toxic materials from affecting the people around.

A fume hood is more than just a ventilation system. It is an essential safety precaution, helps comply with rigorous regulations, and provides accurate research results. Regardless of whether you wonder about what a fume hood is or are looking to replace the existing equipment, choosing the proper laboratory fume hood can help you avoid troubles.

Salient Features of Santech Laboratory Fume Hoods

Santech Laboratory Fume Hoods are distinct due to their superior design and robust material usage. The following aspects of our fume hood differentiate us from the rest:

  • Body made of Stainless Steel Grade 304 or powder-coated mild steel, 1.25 mm thick for exceptional durability against corrosion and cleaning purposes.
  • Choice of Inner Lining between FRP coating, PP, and chemical-resistant compact laminate.
  • Worktops available in either Z-Black Granite or Phenolic Resin, resistant to aggressive chemicals.
  • Sash is provided with vertical sliding toughened glass (5 to 6 mm) for smooth operation and clear vision.
  • Face velocity ranges between 80 and 120 FPM with consistent airflow performance.
  • Vapour-proof LED lighting and 5/15 Amp sockets are safeguarded by an MCB.
  • Optional availability of ducted or ductless units.

Such specifications make our lab fume hood exceptionally chemical resistant, energy efficient and easy to integrate within our modular laboratory systems like Plinth, D-Frame, and C-Frame range.

Ducted and Ductless Fume Hoods: What to Choose

At Santech Labs, we offer options that suit your preferences within the framework of the standard set of laboratory fume hoods we offer. Whether you choose a ducted or a ductless fume hood, both are equally safe and efficient.

A ducted fume hood is connected to the external ventilation system. This type of hood is perfect for handling large amounts of dangerous or unknown chemicals, as it vents any contaminants directly from the lab.

The ductless fume hoods employ an advanced filtration system that cleans up the air and releases it back into the room. These are more suitable for the places where installation may be limited, relocating the equipment is a necessity, or working with smaller quantities of chemicals.

Reasons for Collaborating with Us: Leading Fume Hood Manufacturers in India

The ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and many other certificates prove our dedication towards quality, environmental protection, and safety.

We provide much more than a laboratory fume hood. We offer you a full turnkey project including site evaluation, 3D design, production, professional installation, and further maintenance services. Normally, the projects are finished on time, and the success rate is higher than 98 per cent.

With a modular design, the fume hood perfectly integrates into your set of lab furniture.

Key Points While Buying a Lab Fume Hood

Careful consideration is required when selecting a laboratory fume hood. Begin with an analysis of the nature and quantity of chemicals used in the process. Take into account your space constraints and existing HVAC system while opting for either a ducted or ductless type.

Consider the suitability of the material. For instance, SS 304 is a very durable option when dealing with chemicals used in the pharmaceutical industry due to its superb resistance to corrosion. Moreover, take into account expenses in terms of energy usage and regular maintenance of the equipment.
