Improving research capacity for greater results

The most efficient and cost-effective laboratory removes as many potential bottlenecks as possible. Both scheduling and media availability are critical, especially within food safety, monitoring, and quality assurance, all of which require the right media available on schedule to prevent it from impacting safety testing, which can have knock-on effects for days.  

An autoclave with too small a chamber can result in the need to run multiple additional cycles per day, or having to reschedule to prioritise more time-critical media. A larger autoclave chamber allows for the treatment of much greater quantities at one time but can be wasteful for small loads, or when only a small amount of time-critical material requires prompt treatment when a large load is due to be processed.  

That is why every autoclave built by Priorclave begins with a conversation. As experts in their field, Priorclave appreciate the differing requirements and solutions necessary for modern laboratories, that is why before every autoclave is designed, they will help you navigate which solutions would best suit your needs and workflow, both now and in the future. From a benchtop autoclave that can handle small loads quickly, to a pass-through autoclave for sealed rooms, or impressive twin-stacked autoclaves that allow for two different types of treatments to be processed uniquely at the same time or at differing times.   

Their expertise will help you ascertain the right configuration for all your tasks, and once your autoclave is properly specified, it will be hand-built, from start to finish, in their London facility. Priorclave’s aim is to provide educators, researchers, and innovators around the globe with the equipment they not only require but deserve. An autoclave that is renowned for being Robust, Reliable, Flexible, Affordable, and Safe.  

An efficient and reliable autoclave designed for your needs allows lab managers to streamline the processes and better organise the workflow, free of frequent downtime imposed by machine maintenance or repairs. Priorclave are so confident in the quality and reliability of their autoclaves, that they can offer a warranty and maintenance contract second to none. 

With a bigger chamber within a smaller footprint, labs can reduce multiple cycles to larger more efficient loads. This can greatly reduce conflicting demand, easing the strain on media preparation and improving workflow.  

Each new Priorclave autoclave is of course fitted with their exclusive Tactrol®3 control unit, providing authorised users with full command of all the processing variables, which can be started with the push of a single button, all whilst remaining fully gloved. All autoclave models are fitted with both thermal and pressure locks for enhanced safety, preventing rapid opening at load temperatures above 80°C and pressures above 0.2 bar to ensure lab safety.  

Biomaster™ anti-bacterial silver nano-technology is also incorporated into all epoxy-coated surfaces, providing effective long-term defence against bacteria and fungi, including MRSA. This coating not only reduces the risk of microbial growth, but also helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination, and supports laboratory hygiene standards between cleaning.
