Laminar flow cabinets, or clean work stations, create ultra-clean, particle-free environments essential for protecting sensitive products and processes. They rely on advanced HEPA filtration and unidirectional airflow to maintain contamination-free conditions.
How do they work?
Air passes through pre-filters and HEPA filters (removing particles down to 0.3 microns), then flows in a smooth, laminar stream across the work surface. This continuous airflow maintains a controlled environment that protects products from airborne contamination.
Product Protection Only
Important: These cabinets protect products, not personnel. Never use with viable pathogens or hazardous biological materials.
Industry Applications
Clean work stations are critical for contamination-sensitive tasks, including:
-
Sterile compounding and drug preparation.
-
Cell culture and sample preparation.
-
Precision assembly and testing.
Ensure optimal performance with professional testing from AG&G Services.

FAQS
1. What is Clean Bench Clean work station testing?
Clean Bench Clean work station testing is a compliance process that verifies whether a clean bench provides a sterile, particle-free airflow environment. It ensures that sensitive laboratory work is protected from airborne contamination during use.
2. What is laminar flow testing used for?
Laminar flow testing is used to verify that air is flowing in a smooth, uniform direction without turbulence. This ensures that the workspace remains free from airborne particles that could contaminate samples or products.
3. What is laminar flow hood testing?
Laminar flow hood testing evaluates the performance of laminar flow cabinets or hoods by measuring airflow velocity, HEPA filtration efficiency, and contamination control performance.
4. What is laminar flow clean bench testing?
Laminar flow clean bench testing ensures that clean benches maintain a controlled, sterile environment suitable for laboratory, pharmaceutical, or research applications where contamination control is critical.
5. What is NATA laminar flow cabinet testing?
NATA laminar flow cabinet testing refers to accredited testing conducted in accordance with NATA standards. It ensures results are scientifically valid, independently verified, and accepted by Australian regulators and auditors.
6. Why is laminar flow testing important?
Laminar flow testing is important because it ensures sterile airflow conditions are maintained. Without proper airflow control, contamination can enter the workspace and affect samples, research accuracy, or product safety.
7. How often should Clean work station clean benches and laminar flow hoods be tested?
Most facilities require testing every 6 to 12 months. High-risk environments such as pharmaceutical production or microbiology labs may require more frequent testing based on internal risk assessments.
8. What happens if a laminar flow system fails testing?
If a system fails, it means airflow, filtration, or containment is not within acceptable limits. A detailed report is provided, outlining the corrective actions required before the system can be recertified for use.
