Germfree has delivered over 300 Class III Biological Safety Cabinets (Gloveboxes) to meet the high containment needs of U.S. Federal and State Agencies. We have recently delivered, installed and participated in the commissioning of stationary and mobile Class III Gloveboxes for BSL-3 and BSL-4 laboratories located at U.S. Army Bases in Edgewood, Maryland; Dugway, Utah and Frederick, Maryland. The “Self-Contained Class III Animal Transport System” was designed with and built for the Aerobiology and Toxicology group at US Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID). The system has become the new benchmark in flexible containment strategies because it combines leading edge ingress/egress technology (the Rapid Transfer Port) with unsurpassed ergonomic features. These Rapid Transfer Ports and the Transportable Glovebox are integral parts included in our mobile and modular laboratories.

Germfree has demonstrated national and international expertise in developing mobile, modular and container laboratories to meet user specific requirements. The project team at Germfree includes design and mechanical engineers, industrial engineers and hygienists, registered biosafety officers and end users. These experts, together with the construction team and principal investigators, work cooperatively on every step of the design, manufacturing and installation process to ensure that the safest, most comfortable and useful work area is ultimately achieved.

Germfree is a major sponsor of professional associations, such as the American Biological Safety Association, the Asia-Pacific Biosafety Association, and the American Glovebox Society. These organizations promote the development of better equipment and practices by sharing information and experience in open forums, lectures and courses. Germfree has also participated in many industry forums and workshops to further the advancement of laboratory safety. We recently participated in the International Biorisk Standard Development Initiative, CEN Workshop 31, developing the Laboratory Biorisk Management Standard for the European Union.

Germfree manufactures equipment for a range of applications including: public health, laboratory research, national security, first responders, and hospital pharmacy. Please visit our Product Lines Page or the Product Categories.
