Hygienic furniture and equipment specialist Teknomek has further expanded its range of highquality products for the cleanroom and laboratory sectors with the addition of selected Bimos chairs and stools .
From February 2025 , Teknomek customers will be able to order four Bimos products : The Bimos Labsit chair has been designed to support environments where contamination of products and processes must be avoided at all costs .
Certified for ISO Level 3 cleanrooms , typically used in industries like pharmaceuticals , aerospace and nanotechnology where extreme cleanliness is required , Labsit chairs actively contribute to the adherence of strict contamination control standards With a stylish , hygienic design , compact dimensions , ergonomic construction and user comfort , the Labsit masters all the challenges faced by the modern laboratory chair . Also designed to meet the hygienic requirements of ISO Level 3 cleanrooms , are the Bimos basic cleanroom chair and stool .
All upholstery is sealed and attached to the frame using back-foaming technology . The chairs have smooth , closed surfaces at the seat and backrest shell , preventing any particle deposits collecting on the chair in cleanroom environments where the air is constantly moved by HVAC systems . A closed construction seals off all moving parts of the chair mechanics and this prevents an outward release of particles . Without compromising on comfort , the cleanroom chair and stool can withstand the harshest cleaning regimes .
The Bimos saddle stool is ideal for elevated workstations , especially where mobility is required or legroom is limited . Robust and flexible , the stool has extra-large castors to allow smooth running and easy movement . It is soft and comfortable and allows for ergonomic sitting even with frequent changes of position . Thanks to the intuitive seat height adjustment , it can be easily adapted to elevated workstations and different body heights . The stool is easy to clean making it perfect for laboratory and ultra-clean environments with a cleanroom saddle stool also available .
ESD versions of all the new seating options will be available . The ESD versions provide a hygienic solution for environments where electrostatic discharges protection is essential . Michelle Locke is product and marketing manager at Teknomek . She explains the reason behind Teknomek ’ s new partnership with Bimos .
“ Until now , we have supplied hygienic seating solutions suitable for cleanrooms up to ISO Level 5 ,” Locke explains . “ The Bimos products we have selected for our catalogue provide our customers with even more flexibility , as they can also be used in ultra-sterile , Level 3 , cleanrooms due to their fully enclosed mechanisms and non-shedding materials .”
