Alongside benches, Hoffen supplies laboratory tables and stools, modular storage units, cabinets, worktops and integrated workstations for scientific, industrial and educational laboratories, as well as eyewash stations, emergency showers and laboratory accessories.
Laboratory safety isn’t a product category. It’s the outcome of a design. It’s decided by where the acid cabinets sit, the distance between the eyewash station and the fume hood, and whether storage was planned into the layout or added afterwards.
So Hoffen integrates chemical storage cabinets, flammable cabinets, eyewash stations and emergency showers into the laboratory design from the planning stage, ensuring the highest quality in execution, for laboratories across Egypt and the region.
With strong resistance to heat, chemicals, corrosion, moisture and continuous use.
Every bench can be customized, dimensions, modular configurations, integrated storage units, service connections including a lab bench with sink, and gas and electrical fittings. Our specialists work alongside architects, consultants and laboratory managers to design benches that improve efficiency, safety and ease of use.
· Chemical- and heat-resistant lab worktops
· Heavy-duty steel structural chassis
· Modular under-bench and overhead cabinets
Safety isn’t an added feature. It’s a fundamental requirement.
Our fume hoods rest on three foundations: structural integrity, material quality, and airflow design. A robust structure that withstands heavy use and minimizes vibration.
Premium materials that resist corrosion, fire and chemical exposure. And an aerodynamic design that supports effective containment and ventilation of hazardous fumes, vapors and particulates.
At Hoffen, safety is non-negotiable.
