We offer a wide range of Bungs and can provide you with a selection should you require them. We have evolved our selection from the traditional rubber through to Silicon bungs in order to meet industry demand.

The silicon bungs are increasingly popular due to their dexterity and durability. Due to their material they are completely autoclavable. They can also withstand the majority of acids and disinfectants which may be present within Biotech facilities. Furthermore, our silicon  are able to fit in the majority of transfer sleeves, port caps and any other Isolator accessory. In addition to this, the flexibility of the material means that they are able to provide air-tight seals.

Our traditional bungs are made from Rubber. These provide their own range of benefits including longevity and the ability for heavy duty use. Rubber are slightly more robust than that of the silicon, meaning they have less flexibility. Furthermore, rubber contains Oestrogen and therefore is not suitable for the Gnotobiotic community.

The silicon range is available in white, whereas the rubber range is available in Black and Orange.

There are two sizes of Silicon, small ones are for use during sterilisation. Whereas the larger options are perfect for use within Isolators.

Developed alongside researchers at St. George’s University, the Procedural Screen is a brilliant way to separate your procedures and other experiments. This simple but effective procedural screen allows you to handle and perform manipulations and procedures without other animals being able to observe; thus increasing the animals enrichment. The creation of this product was born out of the need to reduce the visual stimuli present during routine procedures.

Because of this, alongside the researchers, several prototypes were created. Thanks to their work and experiments, we adapted the design to allow for easy storage, cleaning and movement. We therefore, are able to offer a screen that is light and foldable – providing easy storage. We currently manufacture the screen in red polycarbonate which reduces the visual stimuli to the animals. It is possible however, to create this screen in other materials. Furthermore, we plan to launch an Autoclavable option in the near future.

The screen is available in a standard size which fits the majority of housing. However, we are able to build bespoke sizes should you wish.

• Manufactured in red polycarbonate.
• Stainless steel hinges and closure.
• Also available for other housing sizes

This can be used alongside our compete range of housing, racking and isolators. Thanks to the work of the researchers at St. George’s University, the Procedural Screen has become an integral part of their research. Allowing them to reduce the impact of routine procedures on the animals. There is a wide range of uses for this screen, ranging from weaning through to separation and routine procedures.

Through years of research and development, we have created a simple and effective solution to the Metabolism Housing. As standard, we design the floor for either rats or mice and built to your bespoke requirements. We make the housing in stainless steel and electroplate them to ensure good and sound sample collection. Additionally, the racks are built in stainless steel and are designed as single or double units, depending on your requirements.

We developed a system so that food hoppers and water bottles do not leak into the housing thus spoiling any samples collected. We mount all units on autoclavable castors as standard.

Large animal metabolism housing are also available, for example, dog and mini pig. If you have a custom requirement, please contact us. We are always happy to help and look forward to discussing your specific requirements with you.
