Isolator boxes and so-called RABS (restricted access barrier systems) are gaining importance in various industries, from pharmaceutical and electronics manufacturing to food processing and nuclear applications.
They shield the product from people and the environment and offer people and the environment protection from hazards and critical materials.
The controlled, regulated work environment inside the box is isolated from the outside world by a barrier and is usually sterile or clean. The atmosphere can be precisely adjusted in terms of air pressure, humidity and other parameters to meet the specific requirements of the application. Every material and every application requires a specific isolator glove, which must be tailored to the needs of the task in the isolator box.
Mechanical properties, temperature and chemical resistance of the material, the fit and the sterilization types of the isolator gloves are criteria that should be considered when making a suitable selection.
