Whether you are performing a chemical analysis, sample drying, or simply storing hygroscopic materials, you will find in our collection the most dependable and budget-friendly laboratory desiccators that meet the stringent standards of functionality and ruggedness.

What Desiccators

Desiccators are airtight containers intended to hold moisture-sensitive items such as reagents and precision measuring tools which have to be stored under low humidity. These containers assist in preventing atmospheric moisture from modifying the chemical or physical nature of materials stored within by employing desiccants or creating a vacuum. In laboratory environments where accuracy and repeatability are critical, desiccators prevent contamination while keeping materials stable.

Types of Laboratory Desiccators Available

We have in stock vacuum and non-vacuum desiccators of different dimensions and materials to fulfill every requirement.

🧪 Vacuum Desiccators

This category employs vacuum pressure to remove air and lower humidity levels to near-zero. This makes them ideal for highly sensitive analytical procedures. Our vacuum desiccators feature:

  • Strong seals
  • Robust materials of polycarbonate (PC) and polypropylene (PP)
  • Precision-milled valves

… and offer optimal sealing and performance.

🧪 Non-Vacuum Desiccators

Drying and storage of these is more general purpose and offer vapor control that is both simple and effective. Non-vacuum type is usually combined with silica gel as the desiccant material to soak the moisture present in the chamber air.
