Laboratory containment and Airflow Technology
Nearly 40% of occupational diseases in the resource extraction and chemical industries involve respiratory or lung conditions.
With efficient contaminant capture, it is possible to comply with workplace exposure limits and significantly reduce the risk of illness. Contaminant capture systems—such as containment workbenches, containment booths, containment cleanroom systems, or containment room systems from DENIOS—effectively protect your employees from harmful emissions, while safeguarding your substances or mixtures from contamination.

Why is ventilation essential in an industrial or laboratory environment?
In industrial or scientific environments, ventilation plays a fundamental role in the safety and protection of people and facilities. It makes it possible to capture dangerous emissions at their source, to prevent their diffusion into the ambient air and to maintain healthy working conditions. The main objectives of technical ventilation are:
Reducing exposure to technical agents
Prevent fires and explosions
Limiting environmental contamination
Maintain healthy and stable room air
Ensuring compliance with current standards
What are the risks of poor ventilation for workers?
Poor ventilation in industrial or laboratory environments can have serious consequences for the health of operators. Prolonged exposure to volatile substances, solvents, fine dust or toxic vapours can cause immediate irritation but also, in the long term, serious occupational diseases. This includes chronic respiratory disorders, such as bronchitis or occupational asthma, severe allergies, and in some cases, cancers related to inhaling dangerous chemicals.
Statistics show that almost 40% of occupational diseases in the chemical and raw materials industry are of respiratory origin. Without an effective ventilation system, the risk increases for employees, but also for the company, which is exposed to regulatory sanctions, production stoppages or an increase in absenteeism. Proper ventilation is therefore a vital investment for risk prevention and the sustainability of the business.
