Tecniplast change stations are purpose-built for laboratory animal handling. They combine ISO Class 3 air quality with patented dual-configuration work surfaces (flat or recessed) to support both experimental and cage-changing activities. With integrated features like electric height adjustment, noise reduction, and ergonomic design, they enhance both operator comfort and biosecurity compared to standard clean benches.

The patented surface design allows users to switch between a flat mode (ideal for mice cages or procedures) and a recessed mode (better suited for larger cages like rats), without altering airflow integrity. This flexibility improves containment, ergonomics, and workflow adaptability—especially useful in multi-species facilities.

Models such as the ARIA CS36 and CS48 are designed for easy movement. They are 20% lighter than typical comparable units and include integrated push/pull bars and optional castors, making it simple to relocate them between rooms as needed while maintaining containment performance.

Tecniplast change stations are equipped with EC motor technology, LED lighting with dimmer, and HEPA filters protected by pre-filters, significantly extending filter life and reducing energy and maintenance costs. Surfaces like TRESPA® panels are autoclavable and easy to clean, supporting high hygiene standards with minimal downtime.

Tecniplast offers a comprehensive range of change stations to meet the diverse needs of animal research facilities. The ARIA CS series—including models CS36, CS48, CS60, and CS60 D—provides ISO Class 3 air quality with ergonomic designs, recessed or flat work surfaces, red light, option detection, automatic on/off, magnifying glass, dispensers, and lightweight mobility for routine cage changing. For advanced applications, the TECH series—TECH60, TECH48 GAS, TECH60 GAS, and ISO-TECH60 P—combines cage changing functionality with Class II Biosafety Cabinet performance, offering features like integrated anesthesia systems, dual-mode operation, automatic sash windows, and optional germ-free configurations. Together, these models deliver flexible, safe, and high-performance solutions for both standard and specialized workflows.
