Desiccators - Plastic

Plastic desiccators provide a lightweight, durable and cost-effective solution for protecting moisture-sensitive materials and maintaining sample integrity. Suitable for laboratory, research, educational and industrial environments, these desiccators are ideal for the storage, drying and preservation of hygroscopic substances, reagents and analytical samples.

Manufactured from high-quality, chemically resistant plastics, each desiccator features a transparent polycarbonate dome that allows clear visibility of contents without disturbing the internal environment. The robust polypropylene base offers excellent durability and resistance to many laboratory chemicals, making these desiccators a practical alternative to traditional glass models.

Designed for ease of use, each unit is supplied with a perforated polypropylene support plate that promotes uniform airflow while securely supporting samples, dishes and containers. Selected models incorporate vacuum functionality with a polypropylene stopcock and self-lubricating PTFE plug, allowing users to create, release and isolate vacuum conditions as required.

Available in a range of sizes and configurations, including both standard and vacuum desiccators, these units are suitable for a wide variety of laboratory applications where moisture control is essential.
