Ductless Fume Hoods- Portable
Carbon & HEPA filtered enclosures, also known as filtered fume hoods, are ductless laboratory enclosures that remove hazardous fumes, vapors and particles from the laboratory. No installation costs since no ductwork is required. These ductless containment hoods are available in 24″, 32″, 48″, 60″, 72″ and 96″ widths. They can be used for chemical fume, dust & particulate removal, pharmaceutical powder handling, solvent or acid vapor control.
Ducted Fume Hoods - High Clearance
Cleatech’s High clearance construction laboratory fume hoods (often referred ducted exhaust hoods or chemical fume hoods) available from 18″ to 72″ width, including spill chemical tray/ polypropylene worksurface, ideal for applications require exterior ducting for exhaust and need full visibility of the fume hood interior. These fume hoods can be ordered with up to two optional fan modules with adjustable air speed. Ducted fume hoods are ideal for soldering or chemical processing that requires the removal of potentially hazardous fumes with low-level corrosive vapors. Material available in Polycarbonate, non-dissipative PVC and ESD PVC construction.
Polypropylene Fume Hoods for Corrosive Chemical Applications
Cleatech’s Polypropylene laboratory fume hoods with durable and chemical resistant construction are turnkey ventilation system designed for applications require exterior ducting for exhaust. These chemical fume hoods are bottom less that can be placed over the standard size worktables. Permanent bottom/ worksurface can be added upon the request. These laboratory exhaust hoods can be equipped with fan module, are great choice for chemical processing that requires the removal of potentially hazardous fumes.
Ducted Fume Hoods - Stainless Steel
Stainless steel fume hoods have good resistance to a wide range of chemicals and excellent moisture and heat resistance. They can be decontaminated and cleaned easily and they are ESD safe suitable for electro static sensitive applications if their body connected to building grounding. The sash is static dissipative PVC and worksurface is optional and removable. These laboratory hoods can be ordered with or without exhaust blower unit. Primarily functions to provide personnel protection against toxic fumes, vapors and dust but is not compatible with some acids.
Containment Ventilated Enclosures (CVE)
Containment ventilated enclosures, also known as HEPA filtered exhaust hood or powder containment hood, are compliant for powder handling, such as non-sterile hazardous drug compounding in pharmacies. They can be used to protect user from particles whilst weighing, mixing, preparing, compounding, dispensing, administering HDs or low to moderate risk hazardous powders.
Ductless Downflow Workstations
The downflow hoods are constructed from polypropylene and feature a removable stainless steel work surface for easy cleaning. Powders or vapors are collected through perforations on the work surface. They are available in 24”, 32”, 36” width. Ideal for Handling Pharmacy Drugs & Medicines, Chemical Latent Print Development, Solvent and Chemical Preparation.
Ducted Fume Hoods - Vertical Sash
High efficiency coated steel benchtop fume hood with chain driven vertical sash system. Ideal for general chemistry applications. Chemical resistant liners to protect the interior of the fume hood against damage from any chemicals. Available with flammable and acid storage base cabinets and many other accessories such as Automatic sash closing option. Fume hoods are available in three standard lengths, 48” 60″ and 72” and two standard internal depth 24” and 30.
Portable Fume Extractor
Portable fume extractor / fume exhauster with Self-supportive, Three-knuckle adjustable external arm is an air purification system which can provide the partial high pure environment. It recirculates the air through multi-stage filters to capture and remove dust, smoke, and fumes before they enter the work area.
Free-Standing Fume Hoods
Free-standing hoods also known as walk-in fume hoods constructed of heavy duty coated steal frames and PVC and Polypropylene side panels. They are available with optional fan filter module and duct panels.

1. What is a fume hood?
A fume hood is a ventilated enclosure designed to capture, contain, and remove hazardous fumes, vapors, dust, and airborne particles generated during laboratory procedures, helping maintain a safer work environment.
2. Why are fume hoods important in laboratories?
Fume hoods help protect personnel from exposure to harmful chemicals, toxic vapors, and airborne contaminants by directing hazardous substances away from the breathing zone during laboratory operations.
3. What types of fume hoods are available?
Common options include ducted fume hoods, ductless fume hoods, portable fume hoods, and specialty containment systems designed for specific laboratory applications and safety requirements.
4. How does a ducted fume hood work?
A ducted fume hood draws contaminated air through the enclosure and exhausts it outside the building through a dedicated ventilation system, reducing exposure to hazardous substances.
5. What is a ductless fume hood?
A ductless fume hood uses specialized filtration technology to capture contaminants before recirculating cleaned air back into the workspace, offering flexible installation and operation.
6. How do I choose the right fume hood?
Selection depends on the chemicals used, application requirements, airflow needs, laboratory space, safety regulations, and whether ducted or ductless operation is preferred.
7. Can fume hoods be customized?
Many fume hoods can be customized with different dimensions, materials, filtration systems, work surfaces, lighting, and accessories to meet specific laboratory requirements.
8. How often should a fume hood be inspected?
