We're at the commissioning stage for the 76 APEX 5 fume cupboards we have designed, manufactured and installed on Floors 2 & 3 of The University of Manchester's refurbished Chemistry Building. These are in addition to the 77 we have already completed and are in use on Floors 4 & 5.

The APEX 5s have excellent containment, and these models are fitted with VAV and autosash closing systems for safety and energy-efficiency. Check out the synchronised closures below!

Some of the fume cupboards have rear-mounted wet scrubbers, and some have been adapted to make them suitable for HF acid use. You can find out more about Phase 1 of the project here https://bit.ly/McrUniChem

Happy birthday to us! We’re celebrating three decades of innovation, expertise, and commitment to safety and sustainability.

30 years ago today, on 25th July 1994, Clean Air Limited was incorporated as a company. We're still going strong thanks to our incredible clients, partners, suppliers, and team!

During this time we’ve been leading the industry with next-generation fume cupboards, protecting and supporting the lab community with cutting-edge technology, and applying years of expertise to ensure the highest safety and performance standards.

From humble beginnings with a basic range of school fume cupboards, we’ve become a market-leading UK fume cupboard designer, manufacturer, and innovator. Our focus on customer service, quality, and containment has built Clean Air’s reputation for containment and lab safety.

These days we design and install almost as many bespoke fume cupboards as standard. We offer fume cupboards, ventilated enclosures, fume scrubbers, fans, ductwork, installation, and service and maintenance. Not only do we still supply schools, but we’re also a go-to for universities, research labs, and companies large and small.

Thirty years is quite a milestone, and we use the experience we’ve gained to meet our clients’ ever-changing needs - from graphene to nuclear, agrochemical labs to pharma, and beyond.

As we look to the future we’re embracing our environmental responsibility. We’re innovating towards more sustainable practices and solutions, working to eliminate the use of SF6 in the sector, and striving for a greener, healthier future.

A massive “Thank you!” to everyone who has been part of our journey. Here’s to many more years of growth, innovation, and positive impact.

21/06/2024

Let’s raise awareness of and celebrate Clean Air Day 2024. Every individual and company has a part to play in tackling air pollution, linked to 43,000 deaths per year in the UK. The World Health Organisation and the UK Government recognise that air pollution is the largest environmental threat to our health.

We’re taking action at Clean Air Limited for a cleaner, greener future. And we walk the walk, you can judge us by our achievements. Since 2017 we’ve reduced our carbon emissions by 50% even as turnover has doubled.

We’re supporting our clients to be greener without compromising operator safety as well. We offer energy-efficient fume cupboards and VAV systems so our customers can keep their teams protected while reducing their carbon footprint, being kinder to the environment (and saving money ). But wait till you find out about our testing!!!

We’re the only fume cupboard manufacturer to have actively developed a fume cupboard test method which eliminates SF6 – the worst greenhouse gas. Every test we undertake using our Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method saves 3 tonnes CO2e.

So, if you’re as serious as we are about tackling air pollution and caring for our planet, talk to us about how we can work together to deliver quantifiable improvements.

And breathe…

As we look back on a successful 2023 for Clean Air, we’d like to thank our clients for once again putting their trust in us to keep their lab staff safe and protected.

One highlight of the year is the scale and professionalism of our projects - Lucideon, Globachem, and The University of Manchester to name just a few. They are technologically advanced and professional, and the fume cupboards and extract systems will do their jobs effectively for many years to come.

We introduced the new Optimax range of fume cupboards in ’23 – just as safe and user-friendly as the APEX model but designed to fit in smaller labs.

We also made our debut at Lab Innovations at the NEC and were overwhelmed with the number of visitors to our stand. The positive feedback not only for our fume cupboards, but for our customer service and our installation and maintenance teams too was fantastic.

We lead the fume cupboard industry in sustainability, and throughout 2023 our investment in developing CFD to eliminate SF6 from our operations came to fruition – in 2024 we will begin to offer net zero testing. We also planted over 650 native species saplings across the UK on behalf of our clients.

We’re excited for 2024, and we hope you’ll join us on our journey.

The whole Clean Air team wishes our clients and suppliers here in the UK and around the globe a very happy Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year.

We’re celebrating another successful year of delivering lab safety and the assurance our advanced fume cupboard extract system designs offer our customers.

The challenging design demands for applications - including universities, schools, pharma, agrochemical, life sciences, petrochemical, and nuclear - have kept us at the top of our game.

2023 saw us go public with the work we have been doing to reduce the fume cupboard industry’s reliance on SF6 for testing. We’ve showcased our alternative method – highly accurate and reproducible, carbon-neutral Computational Fluid Dynamics modelling. We’ve planted almost 900 native saplings in the UK on behalf of our clients.

And we have thoroughly enjoyed every minute!

We close at 12:00 on Friday 22nd December and reopen at 8:00 Tuesday 2nd January. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of 2023 with us and see you in 2024!

This Clean Air High Performance Radius Profile fume cupboard is ideal for safety-critical radioisotope work due to its containment, corrosion resistance, and ease of decontamination. The seamless stainless steel monolithic chamber ensures a robust and inert environment, crucial for handling sensitive radioisotopes.

The horizontal sliding panes in the sash minimise the required opening area, providing easy and controlled access to the chamber without compromising safety.

Clean Air's meticulously designed fume cupboards prioritise safety and efficiency, making them the ideal choice for laboratories requiring precision and reliability in radioisotope research.

There's around 26 years between these two Clean Air Fixed Ducted fume cupboards. Some features haven't changed at all, but the current control membrane with airflow alarm is a safety improvement on the original model. However, thanks to solid design and construction, and a great maintenance and cleaning regime, the older unit is still going strong in a school prep room in Buckinghamshire!

Plant a tree in ’23!! Order a fume cupboard or service visit from Clean Air this year and we’ll plant a UK-native sapling on your organisation’s behalf. Order 20 fume cupboards – we’ll plant 20 saplings! And we’ll send you a certificate telling you where in the UK your trees have been planted, and what species they are.

Planting a tree not only helps reduce carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere but also helps improve air quality, reduces soil erosion, and provides habitats for wildlife.

Clean Air’s ambition is to lead the fume cupboard industry in sustainability. We’re working hard to lower our carbon footprint, and between 2017 and 2022 we lowered our emissions by two thirds – even as turnover doubled!

These Clean Air Radius Profile fume cupboards have VAV technology to save energy, cut costs and reduce carbon emissions. They have been chosen for a new facility for a multi-faceted international company which specialises in materials development, R&D, and testing and assurance.

The 14 high-containment fume cupboards and a full extract system have been designed, manufactured and installed for Lucideon in Staffordshire. They have been powder-coated to match our client's branding, which is also echoed in the APMG Limited lab furniture.

Clean Air has designed, manufactured, installed, and commissioned 77 energy-efficient APEX-5 fume cupboards and six rear-mounted fume scrubbers for the University of Manchester’s£12m Chemistry Campus project.

The APEX-5 fume cupboards all feature Variable Air Volume (VAV) and auto-sash technology. VAV systems reduce the amount of conditioned air pulled through the fume cupboards, which reduces the amount of heated or cooled air required to replace it, thus reducing energy usage.

An auto sash control system on every unit reduces any unnecessary airflow through the fume cupboard by automatically closing the sash when no user presence is detected. In combination, these two systems can reduce energy consumption by up to 70%, reducing carbon emissions and significantly lowering energy costs.

It’s no coincidence that the University has demanded this technology. It’s the first university in the world to have been recognised as a carbon literate organisation. It’s working towards its zero carbon target and has pledged to make urgent reductions in the first five years.
