Congratulations to The National Institute of Communicable Diseases in Modderfontein on their world-class laboratory!
In contrast to other compact work surfaces, our chemically-resistant compact boards for lab furniture is resilient to the most concentrated or aggressive chemicals, such as Sulfuric, Hydrochloric, Hydrofluoric Acids or Hydrogen Peroxide- ensuring you can rely on total chemical resistance!
Due to its non-porous finish, our compact boards for labs can be easily disinfected and doesn’t support the growth of bacteria. As a result you can confidently disinfect, knowing that you will kill > 99.99% of germs.
Following a deliberate contamination with the aggressive Staphylococcus Aureus and Escherichia Coli bacteria’s, and subsequent disinfection, it was proven that our compact boards for labs were as effective as stainless steel when it comes to disinfection. These rigorous tests demonstrate the superior performance of Max Resistance and highlight its suitability for medical, bio-chemical, food and pharmaceutical sectors/laboratories. In a further test, it was demonstrated that the surface of Max Resistance is free of micropores.
Salvocorp’s compact boards for laboratory furniture are available in 12 modern colours. The most popular colours in the industry are black, grey and white. Sheet sizes are usually 3660×1630 mm and thickness can be between 1mm to 25 mm’s.
During the manufacture of Fundermax Compact panels, kraft paper is impregnated with resin, dried, and compressed at high pressure – producing highly durable and moisture resistant panels. The waste from this process is treated (by regenerative thermal oxidation) and then re-used, achieving an entirely closed production cycle.
Although Salvocorp always carries core colour ranges, kindly remember to always confirm stock levels and the lead times with a Salvocorp representative. It is also important to let representatives know when products are specified so that the councils can start to communicate with the fabricators and installers as soon as possible to ensure availability and to assist with any technical data and questions.
