Halton gas and smoke extraction for Healthcare.
Protecting patients and medical staff with advanced extract solutions.
The Halton Vita Extract solution provides a health-friendly work environment by removing hazardous gases directly at their source. Anaesthetic gases are collected from the patient’s mask after they have been exhaled, and smoke produced in surgeries is collected straight from the diathermy device or surgery area.
Why chose Halton
Operating room staff face serious health risks from surgical smoke and waste anesthetic gases – ranging from irritation and respiratory illness to reproductive harm and carcinogenic exposure.
- A single day in the OR may expose staff to the equivalent of smoking 27–30 cigarettes
- Surgical smoke contains up to ~150 harmful toxins, including carcinogens
- Over 80% are nanoparticles (<0.1 μm) that can penetrate deep into lungs and enter the blood or lymphatic system, potentially reaching distant organs
Halton’s gas and smoke extraction solution is essential engineering controls to mitigate these risks, safeguard staff and patients, and comply with emerging healthcare standards.

FAQ
- What is surgical smoke? Why is surgical smoke dangerous?
Surgical smoke is a hazardous byproduct created during procedures that use lasers, electrosurgical units, or other heat-generating tools. It contains toxic chemicals, viruses, and fine particulates that can pose serious health risks to medical staff if not properly extracted. - How does Halton’s gas and smoke extraction system work in operating rooms?
Halton’s system captures and removes surgical smoke and anesthetic gases directly at the source using high-efficiency filtration and targeted airflow control. It integrates with existing HVAC to maintain clean air without disrupting the sterile field. - Are Halton’s solutions compliant with healthcare air quality standards?
Yes, Halton’s gas and smoke extraction solutions are designed to comply with major international healthcare ventilation standards. - Can the system be installed in existing operating rooms?
Absolutely. Halton systems are modular and can be retrofitted into existing ORs with minimal disruption. Our team provides full support from system design to installation and commissioning.
