Howorth Airtech has announced the completion of its first turnkey project with The London Clinic – the design and construction of a cutting-edge operating theatre, purpose-built to accommodate robotic surgery.
Howorth Airtech manufactures one of the world's most advanced ultraclean ventilation systems, the Exflow 90-5, with its unique graded velocity air profile. Its installation means the theatre will also be suitable for major orthopaedic surgery.
A conventional arrangement was precluded by the exceptionally low ceiling height, which Howorth Airtech overcame by the novel modification of the Exflow canopy to incorporate two separate operating lamps. Despite this challenge, the complete refurbishment took only 12 weeks from commencement to completion.
