PBSC provided cleanroom pass through hatches to Southend University Hospital, which is part of Broomfield Hospital.
PBSC supplied cleanroom products for several years at this research facility. However, we were recently asked to update and replace the existing underperforming transfer hatches provided by another company.
The results not only ensured uniformity but also gave the facility an unrivaled cleanroom hatch.
Products supplied:

New PBSC Replacement Hatch
PBSC’s hatch, also referred to as a cleanroom pass through and a pass box, is a durable and sturdy solution for transferring materials in and out of a cleanroom or a containment conrolled workspace, eliminating the need for personnel to enter or exit the laboratory or hospital environment.
The result for Southend University Hospital is one of being able to reduce the risk of contamination and increase efficiency while providing a barrier between adjacent cleanrooms.
Enhancing the look of the facility while giving maximum visibility and natural light.
