CORPORATE PROFILE –
FUME FILTRATION
DIVISION
A History of Clean Air Device
Manufacturing
The emergence of new high-
tech industrial and life sciences
industries in the late 70’s
opened
opportunities
for
development
of
clean
air
solutions. We were among the
earliest to spot this opportunity.
Esco was thus founded in 1978
to pioneer development in this
exciting new field of clean air
technologies.
Soon
after,
leveraging on our strengths in
clean
air
technology,
we
ventured into the construction of
laminar flow clean air devices.
By the early 80’s, we had
already
designed
biohazard
safety cabinets - today a core
offering of Esco Biotech - and
fume hoods. Manufacturing of
these
products
were
also
undertaken simultaneously. This
greatly helped us in broadening
the
base
of
our
core
competencies
to
encompass
containment technology. By
then, Esco had emerged as the
first local company to export
indigenously
developed
and
credible clean air products. To
further build on our strengths,
Esco established a sheet metal
fabrication facility in 1985.
Esco Fume Filtration
The
Esco
Fume
Filtration
Division is a highly focused
manufacturer of ductless fume
cabinets and other carbon-
filtered enclosures designed for
the containment of hazardous
chemical
vapours
in
the
laboratory.
Our products comply with the
latest international standards for
both containment and filtration
efficacy such as the American
Standard
ASHRAE
110,
European Standard EN 14175,
French Standard AFNOR NF X
15-211 and British Standard BS
7989:2001. Esco is unique in
being the first and only Asian
manufacturer of carbon filtered
enclosures which have been
independently
tested
and
certified. Our state-of-the-art in
house testing capabilities for
both containment and filtration
efficacy
have
also
been
independently accredited.
Esco offers one of the widest
ranges (more than 7 types) of
carbon filtered enclosures in the
industry
and
are
carefully
matched
to
the
user’s
application to ensure safety.
When this process is complete,
the user can enjoy the benefits
of carbon filtration (ductless)
technology including mobility,
energy-savings
and
no
installation costs.
Today Esco is helping a whole
gamut of high-tech industries
keep their products, people and
processes
free
from
contamination.
Be it our cleanroom construction
components
that
help
pharmaceutical
majors
meet
GMP standards for producing
drugs in a clean environment; or
our
laminar
flow
mini-
environments
that
help
microelectronics manufacturers
enhance their product reliability
and yields; or for that matter our
safety
cabinets
that
help
researchers conducting clinical
biological research in developing
vaccines
for
dangerous
diseases – Esco is making its
own humble contribution in a
wide range of critical fields that
in turn help in making a
difference to our day-to-day
lives.
With sales in over 70 countries,
we have fully geared ourselves
for
the
international
marketplace.
In
our
single
minded pursuit for customer
satisfaction, we have developed
a
well
knit
network
of
international
distributors
and
partners, who provide quick,
responsive and localised service
and support for our products.
Sophisticated Production
Capabilities
Today Esco’s production work is
carried out at a state-of-the-art
centralized facility measuring
3,900 m
2
(42,000 sq. ft). Based
in Bintan, Indonesian, this facility
is highly automated to ensure
that all products adhere to the
highest quality standards and
production
involves
minimal
human
intervention.
