Security

Safety in the laboratory is indispensable because you may come into contact with harmful substances.
In chemical laboratories you may be in contact with corrosive or toxic elements. In biology laboratories, contaminants may be present.
Not to mention work that requires the utmost care because radioactive substances are present.

Collective Protection

In the laboratory there is equipment that can be fitted with safety devices for the entire environment. Chemical fume hoods, for example, are equipped with protective shields that are more or less insulating from the environment.
In microbiology, people work with safety cabinets that ensure the isolation of the operator from the material they are handling. Or BioHazard hoods that meet the highest safety requirements.

Safety-compliant furniture

The laboratory furnishings must also be designed to offer the highest safety guarantees.

There are storage cabinets specifically designed to hold flammable materials such as certain types of very dangerous solvents.
Or cabinets equipped with special HEPA filters that can store material that could exhale toxic substances.
There are many potentially harmful substances that must be stored. That is why there are special containers for each type of risk.

Personal protection

Protective equipment for the most exposed parts of the body can be found on the market.
Hats and helmets to protect the head, shields for the face, goggles and masks for the eyes, earplugs and ear muffs.
A particularly diverse range of masks to protect the respiratory tract from all kinds of vapours and fumes.
Gloves, shoes, boots, overalls exist in different materials to protect against the most commonly used substances in laboratories and industry.

Personal protection kits

These are available in a variety of materials for the most common substances used in laboratories and industry.

The most common materials are gloves, shoes, boots, overalls, etc.

First Aid Kits

In addition to the protections described above, first aid kits must be present in workplaces.
Particularly in those environments where potentially dangerous substances are present. First aid kits must be equipped to intervene for the specific substances present. As well as, of course, complying with the most common occupational accident prevention regulations.

Labels for packaging and containers

There are regulations for the use of coded labels to be applied to containers of potentially hazardous substances. Colaver offers in its online catalogue all the labels required by the regulations in force.

Hygiene

In addition to protection from the outside world, in certain working environments it is necessary to protect the product from human contamination. This is the case, for example, in the food sector, where certain clothing must be worn to limit contact between the operator and the product.
Or in certain laboratories, where the environment must be as sterile as possible, it is necessary to wear full body coverings.
All these products are on sale online in the Colaver catalogue. In addition to the products, Colaver can offer advice on specific needs and research into devices that may be difficult to find.
