SCAT Europe is the world's leading manufacturer of solvent safety solutions for laboratories and chemical plants. Invented in 1998, the SCAT system protects workers and their environment from evaporating solvents, being mostly used in analytical laboratories. The SCAT system blocks health and environmental hazards right at the source. It closes solvent containers safely and reliably, even while working with their contents. The intelligent filter and valve system ensures a safe pressure equalization. When supplying your HPLC units with solvents, SCAT SafetyCaps ensure safe ventilation of the laboratory bottles and a clean mobile phase. When collecting liquid waste, harmful vapors are blocked by the integrated exhaust air filter. The system adapts to your laboratory and replaces expensive extraction systems or renovations. This allows you to stay safe and flexible when working with harmful solvents and other chemicals.
