Backdraft Tables & Workstations

Backdraft Tables & Workstations

Geneva Scientific necropsy and pathology workstations provide ventilated, ergonomically designed work surfaces for a wide range of procedures in vivariums, research labs, and animal care facilities. These backdraft tables are engineered to protect laboratory personnel while supporting high-efficiency workflows for gross examination, specimen sectioning, necropsy, dissection, perfusions, surgeries, and chemical handling.

Backdraft Ventilation for Safety & Compliance

Our backdraft workstations utilize a negative airflow system to pull airborne particulates, vapors, odors, and aerosols away from the operator’s breathing zone. This ventilation method:

• Maintains airborne contaminant control, including animal allergens and chemical fumes
• Reduces exposure to hazardous chemicals such as formalin, alcohol, and xylene
• Supports compliance with OSHA permissible exposure limits
• Creates a healthier and safer work environment for staff

By drawing contaminants backward and away from users, backdraft tables minimize risk without compromising procedure visibility or workflow efficiency.

Ergonomics & Workflow Features

Necropsy and pathology workstations are designed for both operator comfort and operational efficiency:

• Ergonomic work height options for long-duration tasks
• Durable, easy-to-clean stainless steel surfaces
• Integrated sinks, drainage systems, and waste management options
• Optional shelving, tool storage, or specimen staging areas
• Standard and custom designs to meet facility-specific requirements

These features make the workstations suitable for high-volume facilities, research institutions, and specialized veterinary or pathology labs.
