Bahnson Environmental Specialties is now Environmental Specialties, LLC.

Dry Rooms

Dry rooms are temperature-, dew point-, and humidity-controlled environmental units that provide stable conditions for the storage and testing of electronic devices and equipment. These highly specialized environmental chambers can maintain dewpoint as low as -80°C, for relative humidity (RH) levels as low as 1 percent.

Our dry rooms are designed and constructed by a team of skilled engineers. They are suitable for a wide range of applications including the design, testing, storage, manufacturing, and assembly of batteries, medical devices, and other electronics.

  • “Thanks again for the support in getting us to this stage eventually – finding an incubator that meets our temperature spec has been a challenge for us for the last few years and this is a significant milestone for the business. Hopefully we will have more good news to report in the new year.”

    Project Engineer, Major Biotechnology Manufacturer

  • “During a recent external audit, an inspector requested the PM/Cal documents for the stability chambers. It was my pleasure to give him the nicely presented binders. I could tell he was impressed.

    Thanks for the great service you have provided for us over the years.”

    Teresa P, Taste Texture and Health, DSM-Firmenich

  • “Environmental Specialties has always provided me with great service. All the individuals I worked with were knowledgeable about ES products and services.  They were highly skilled. I relied on ES for pm, calibration, qualification, repair, chamber sourcing and consultations. I interacted with a lot of your employees.  The feedback was always spot on. They were always smiling and supportive even in the most difficult situations. ES is a great company with good people.”
