LAF tech delivers glove isolator for RNA research and manufacturing facility in New South Wales

Published: 18-Mar-2026

The laboratory equipment supplier has completed the installation of a glove sterile environment isolator to support GMP-aligned RNA manufacturing

LAF tech, an Australasian laboratory equipment supplier, has delivered a high‑specification TIMOTEC 5 glove sterile environment isolator to a major RNA research and manufacturing facility in New South Wales.

The isolator system provides a controlled Grade A environment designed to minimise contamination risk during aseptic processing of RNA materials intended for upcoming clinical trial applications. 

The product was engineered to meet stringent Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements.

The integrated design includes a Vaporised Hydrogen Peroxide decontamination unit for surface sterilisation and robust contamination control.

How was the isolator installed?

Delivered from Europe and coordinated to meet compressed project timelines, the isolator was air‑freighted to the facility. 

LAF tech’s specialist technicians then conducted onsite assembly, qualification, testing and commissioning, ensuring the system met project‑specific protocols and cleanroom requirements.

Ongoing compliance and performance will be supported through NATA‑accredited testing, calibration and preventative maintenance by LAF tech’s factory‑trained engineers, underpinning long‑term operational reliability and regulatory readiness. 

The glove isolator will help deliver GMP‑compliant containment solutions for advanced life sciences and pharmaceutical environments under tight timelines.

Other LAF Tech projects 

The glove isolator installation is just one of the many projects that LAF tech has delivered and commissioned for the life sciences sector.  

They recently installed a customised environmental monitoring system for AdvanCell, a radiopharmaceutical company spearheading the development of cancer treatment for patients with previously untreatable conditions.

They also installed and commissioned Vaporised Hydrogen Peroxide decontamination chambers at a vaccine GMP facility in Melbourne, which were manufactured by Block Technology.
