Description
The 405 is an upholstered bench-height cleanroom chair — a fully adjustable chair with footring for controlled environments around 900 mm benches, where seat comfort is wanted for long sessions but the build must still suit wipe-down. Purchased over 1,087 times to date.
Choose the 405 where operators sit for extended spells — microscopy, assembly and inspection in controlled space. Where the regime demands a solid seat with no upholstery at all, the PU-seat 401 is the stricter specification; for seated positions, see the desk-height 406. The lab chair height guide confirms the class.
Seat materials
Available in wipe-clean Vinyl or Xtreme Fabric (100% recycled), both included in the price. Vinyl is the usual cleanroom choice; see the full colour and materials range.
Feet or castors
Supplied with feet as standard, which is usually right for a tall chair at a standing bench. Castors are available at a price uplift — specify soft-tyre for hard or vinyl flooring, and lock-off or lock-down castors where the chair must stay put. Consider the safety requirements of your working environment before choosing castors on a high chair.
Accessories
Available to order with a seat slide (adjusts seat depth for taller or shorter users), adjustable arms, ring arms (better where fixed arms would foul the bench), lumbar support or seat tilt. Priced individually — see the accessories page or ask on your quote.
Who uses the 405
Supplied to controlled environments at McLaren Racing, Baxter Healthcare and DePuy Synthes. The cleanroom range is also in use at Bristol Myers Squibb and Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS.
Ordering
Purchase orders accepted, VAT invoice supplied. Volume pricing from 4 units. Delivery included to mainland Britain. UK support and spares available — we have been supplying laboratory and technical seating since 1986.
