Mach Aire designed, built, and installed 25 fume cupboards for a global leader in the development, manufacture, and supply of fluoroproducts that play a fundamental role in enhancing everyday lives.
The client operates several laboratories across the globe and needed a reliable and high-quality fume cupboard solution to ensure the safety of their workers.
Challenges
The client required bespoke fume cupboards that would cater to their unique requirements, including bench-type and walk-in versions manufactured at varying widths and depths, with CO2 fire suppression, pass-through ports, and service outlets.
The client also needed fume cupboards that were energy-efficient and could help reduce their carbon footprint.
Solutions
Our team collaborated with Ventec North West to provide bespoke Mach-Aire fume cupboards that catered to the client's unique needs.
To ensure maximum energy efficiency, our team provided fume cupboards with variable air volume (VAV) functionality, which adjusts the airflow rate to match the requirements of the application and exact sash position.
This ensures that only the necessary amount of air is exhausted, resulting in significant energy savings.
Results
The bespoke Mach-Aire fume cupboards provided by our team and Ventec North West have significantly enhanced the client's laboratory safety and efficiency.
The client can now conduct their experiments and research with peace of mind, knowing that their workers are protected from hazardous and toxic fumes.
Overall, our team and Ventec North West were able to provide a reliable and high-quality solution that catered to the client's unique requirements, ensured the safety of their workers, and helped them reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint.
