Glove Boxes - Dry

Dry glove boxes are specialised laboratory enclosures designed to create a moisture-free environment for handling sensitive materials that are hygroscopic or reactive with water. These units are equipped with built-in gloves, allowing researchers to manipulate samples without direct contact, thereby minimising contamination risks. Typically constructed from materials that ensure airtight integrity, dry glove boxes maintain low humidity levels, often using desiccants or inert gases to achieve the desired conditions. They are widely used in chemistry, materials science, and pharmaceutical research for tasks such as synthesising reactive compounds or handling moisture-sensitive substances. By providing a controlled and safe environment, dry glove boxes protect both the operator and the integrity of the samples, ensuring reliable results in sensitive experiments.
