Protecting Your Research
and Your People
In any laboratory handling hazardous chemicals, biological agents, or volatile solvents, the Fume Hood is the most critical line of defense. Metrolabs specializes in designing, manufacturing, and installing advanced local exhaust ventilation systems that limit exposure to toxic fumes, vapors, and dusts — exceeding SEFA standards and aligning with ASHRAE 110 and EN 14175 protocols.
A Hood Engineered for Every Application
Every laboratory has unique chemical profiles and airflow requirements. We provide a diverse selection of hoods tailored to your specific application:
The industry standard for general laboratory work. Built with high-quality steel and vertical-sliding sashes, these units provide a full view of the workspace while ensuring maximum containment of hazardous vapors and gases.
Specifically engineered for handling highly corrosive substances like Nitric, Sulphuric, or Perchloric acids. Features specialized liners and wash-down systems to prevent the dangerous buildup of reactive salts.
A dynamic, eco-friendly solution for labs where external ducting is not feasible. Uses advanced carbon filtration and in-situ scrubbing to neutralize vapors before returning clean air to the laboratory.
Optimized for energy efficiency, VAV hoods adjust exhaust rates based on sash position, maintaining constant face velocity while significantly reducing operational costs and HVAC load.
Designed to operate at lower face velocities without compromising safety. These units can reduce energy consumption by up to 40% compared to standard models — ideal for green lab initiatives.
Flexible Extractor Arms provide mobile, point-of-source ventilation for benchtop work — ideal for localized fume removal at workstations without requiring a full fixed hood installation.
Ideal for placement over ovens, steam baths, or hot plates for localized heat, steam, or odor removal. Canopy hoods provide a practical overhead solution for high-temperature bench operations.
Enhance your fume hood setup with our full range of accessories: integrated rinse sinks, gas service lines, tank heaters, lattice rod assemblies for distillation, and airflow monitoring alarms. Our engineers design each accessory package to integrate perfectly with your hood model and workflow. From simple service fittings to fully-configured distillation assemblies, Metrolabs ensures every accessory meets your chemical hygiene plan requirements.
More Than an Enclosure — An Integrated Safety System
Metrolabs fume hoods incorporate engineered safety features that go far beyond basic containment:
Customized Scrubbing Systems
Our engineers design scrubbers specific to your chemical throughput, ensuring exhausted air is neutralized and compliant with environmental regulations before discharge.
Robust Material Selection
Choose from stainless steel, polypropylene, or specialized epoxy-coated liners depending on your lab’s corrosive profile and the chemicals regularly processed.
Vertical Sash Technology
Smooth-sliding sashes provide easy access and ergonomic comfort while maintaining the critical air barrier between the researcher and the experiment at all times.
Real-Time Airflow Monitoring
Optional airflow alarms and electronic monitoring systems provide instant alerts if face velocity drops below safe thresholds — preventing undetected exposure risks.
End-to-End Ventilation Partnership
We provide a complete lifecycle service that ensures your ventilation system is optimized from day one through every scheduled audit.
Expert Consultation
No-strings-attached lab consultations to help you select the right hood based on your chemical hygiene plan — we match the product to your workflow, not the other way around.
Validation Support
We supply IQ/OQ documentation and provide validation protocols for periodic safety audits — keeping you compliant with regulatory and accreditation bodies.
Professional Installation
Our teams ensure that ductwork (available in PVC, Stainless Steel, or Aluminum) is properly routed and resilient against weathering and chemical degradation.
Custom Accessories
Enhance your workflow with integrated rinse sinks, gas service lines, tank heaters, and lattice rod assemblies for distillation — all engineered to your spec.
