To satisfy this need, Intellibio has launched different categories of optimized animal restrainers. All rodent restrainers are manufacturerd from clear perspex materials to provide complete visual awareness of the state of your animal. Flat bottom restrainers are manufactured from perspex cylinders mounted on a flat black perspex base. All the models are free access through both extremes, by opening the respective tilting door that is fixed by a screw at the upper part of the restrainer. Animals can be immobilised by sliding the doors along the restrainer.
