Isolation Technology

In our workshops, we manufacture and assemble rigid isolators and glove boxes. Representing more permanent solutions for customers’ containment needs, our rigid isolators are tailor-made in relation to the specific operation to be carried out, be it sampling, dispensing, equipment charging, offloading and so on. They can be made with a variety of materials, from stainless steel 304/316/316L up to Hastelloy C-22. We always involve our customers in the realization of their rigid isolator to show them step by step the project and adapt it to their needs, for example in the mock-up phase where they can see and get a more precise idea of the machine we are going to build. We also support our customers right up to the final validation and testing phase, for example with the leak and smepac tests.
