HEPA filtration

High-efficiency particulate air filters capturing at least 99.999 percent of particles at 0.3 micrometres (H14 grade), the core containment technology in biosafety cabinets and cleanrooms.

Where it's used

Biosafety & lab biosecurity
Physical-containment infrastructure — biological safety cabinets, HEPA filtration, autoclave sterilization and BSL-1 to BSL-4 containment — that protects personnel, product and environment in every biotechnology laboratory, governed by NSF/ANSI 49 and EN 12469.
