Sanondaf FM delivers specialist decontamination for critical laboratory equipment and controlled life-science environments. Fume cupboards, biological safety cabinets and vented air systems must operate contamination-free to protect people, samples and results.

When contamination enters the workflow, it can compromise research outcomes, disrupt manufacturing schedules, and trigger costly investigations, rework and downtime.

Manual cleaning remains important, but it cannot always reach internal chambers, ducting, filter housings, plenums or airflow pathways. These hidden areas can harbour spores and microorganisms that survive routine wipe-downs and then re-enter the working zone through air movement and use. In busy research and production settings, that risk escalates quickly, especially where equipment has complex geometry, internal baffles, seals, and limited access points.

Our Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV) approach is designed to address these hard-to-reach spaces. By using a dry-fog vapour that disperses throughout the treated volume, we provide deep penetration into complex systems without leaving residue or causing avoidable disruption.

This supports data integrity, process reliability and hygiene assurance, with clear documentation to help satisfy audit, compliance and validation expectations.

We work with laboratory managers, facilities teams and EHS stakeholders to plan treatment around operational needs.

HPV decontamination is suitable for routine maintenance programmes, post-incident response following suspected contamination, and support during facility upgrades, recommissioning and changeovers. The goal is consistent control, reduced risk, and a practical pathway back to normal operations.

HPV Explained

What is Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV)?

Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV) is a professional decontamination method used in controlled environments to reduce microbial contamination across surfaces and within enclosed systems.

Hydrogen peroxide is dispersed as a dry-fog vapour that travels through the treated space, allowing it to reach internal chambers, ducting runs, airflow pathways and other areas that are difficult or impossible to access with manual cleaning. When the vapour contacts surfaces, it acts through oxidation, helping to inactivate a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses and spores.

In life-science settings, HPV is valued because it supports a whole-system approach rather than a visible-surface clean. Treatment cycles are carried out under controlled conditions, with exposure and aeration managed to suit the equipment and environment. After the cycle, the vapour breaks down into oxygen and water, leaving no residue. This residue-free outcome is important in laboratories where sensitive instruments, electronics, seals and internal components must be protected, and where repeatable hygiene standards and documented evidence are needed for compliance and validation.

Bin Cleaning

Bin Cleaning & Full Decontamination Services

In laboratories and research facilities, even non-hazardous waste bins can accumulate biological residue where bacteria, mould, and spores thrive. Sanondaf FM’s bin cleaning and HPV decontamination service delivers the validated level of hygiene these sensitive environments require.
