Read article5A Worldwide Specialty Solutions is your trusted US representative for world-class sterile and high-potency containment technology — connecting American pharma and biotech with leading European innovators.
A curated selection of our principals' most sought-after solutions for sterile and high-potency applications across the US pharma and biotech market.
Single-pass, negative-pressure HEPA-filtered glovebox for weighing and handling high-potency compounds at OELs below 1 μg/m³. Radiused internal edges throughout for easy cleaning, with a dedicated sample transfer chamber.
Safety cabinet and enclosure providing total containment for operator, sample and environment — suitable for hazard groups 1, 2 and 3.
316 stainless steel isolator for handling potent compounds down to 5 ng/m³, with a hinged toughened-glass door, interlocked transfer hatch and automatic pressure ramp-up control.
