V-Korr blimey!  Teknomek expands its autoclavable range

Aug 15 2016

With the continuing popularity of autoclave sterilisation, Teknomek, a leading provider of hygienic furniture and equipment, has responded by expanding its range of autoclavable equipment.

The autoclavable range now includes stools and chairs with V-Korr seating as well as autoclavable mats and sterile baskets.

So, why V-Korr for autoclaves?  Sue Springett, Commercial Manager at Teknomek, explains: “Autoclaves are particularly popular due to their suitability for deep cleaning re-usable items such as stainless steel furniture and their capacity to quickly destroy spores and bacteria through its combination of heat and steam.  While our 304 and 316 grade stainless steel products are tough enough to cope with the autoclave’s hostile cleaning, the qualities of V-Korr are more comfortable than the 100% stainless steel counterpart.

V-Korr combines natural minerals, pure acrylic resin and pigments to create a highly resistant, durable material that’s pleasant to the touch.  Its hygienic, non-toxic nature also makes it ideal for laboratory environments where excellence in hygiene standards are the highest priority.’’

Sue continues: “The V-Korr seat has a generous diameter of 310mm. There’s a greater height range too, with a column adjustment of 470mm-732mm. The stool’s 5-star stainless steel base comes fitted with glides, but you can opt for stainless steel castors if you prefer, as well as a foot ring for added comfort.”

However, if the V-Korr chair doesn’t take your fancy, Teknomek offer both a stool and a chair manufactured from 100% stainless steel which can be fully dismantled for sterilisation in an autoclave. With an all stainless steel construction, this chair and stool can withstand the high temperatures within an autoclave, whereas equipment with silicon tubing can deform when subjected to this sterilisation method.

Each Teknomek autoclave stool and chair in the range comes fully assembled and can be easily disassembled for sterilisation, ensuring they tick all of the hygiene boxes required in a cleanroom environment. 

As well as autoclavable seating, Teknomek also supply an assortment of autoclavable production accessories fit for cleanroom specifications. For example, Teknomek offer a variety of sterile goods baskets, with stackable, nestable and handled options; perfect storage solutions for any laboratory.

But the range does not stop there; autoclavable anti-fatigue matting is also available in a regular size to fit in standard autoclaves. This non-porous and anti-bacterial synthetic matting complements Teknomek’s wide range of autoclavable furniture and equipment, ensuring that laboratories fulfil their hygiene requirements with Teknomek’s products.
