French dental chairs · for India
Airel-Quetin has designed dental chairs and units in France since 1982. Our PE8 and K2 chairs adapt to the way you work, right-handed or left-handed, alone or four-handed, with water decontamination built into the unit. With our partners, we deliver and service them across India.
The range in India
PE8 for practices that need total flexibility. K2 for compact surgeries where every centimetre counts. Each comes in a One version, simple and robust, or a Neo version with a sealed touch screen.
The universal unit. Switches from right-handed to left-handed in a few seconds, ideal for group practices and teaching clinics.
Designed for small surgeries without compromising ergonomics. A proven structure, approved for more than 15 years.
All the ambidextrous flexibility of PE8, controlled from a sealed monochrome touch screen that shows every function of the selected instrument.
The compact K2 with a sealed monochrome touch screen. Microprocessor-driven movements and multiple safety systems.
All models are Class IIa medical devices bearing the CE mark. Whip-arm (instruments head-down) or hanging-tube (instruments head-up) delivery, chair-, wall- or cart-mounted: tell us how you work and we configure the unit around you.
Ergonomics
Long clinical days take a toll on the back, neck and shoulders. Every Airel-Quetin unit is designed so the dentist and assistant keep a natural posture, whatever the treatment.
On PE8, the unit and assistant module swap sides in seconds, with perfect symmetry. Right- and left-handed dentists share the same surgery.
Shape-memory upholstery in five layers, a wide seat with no "undressing" effect and a triple-articulation headrest set with one button.
Chair, wall or ceiling mounting and a mobile cart. K2 fits compact city surgeries; PE8 opens the patient entry completely.
Unit on the right, access from the left. The classic right-handed layout.
Choosing a chair
A dental chair is a ten-year decision. Price matters, but so do posture, hygiene and who will answer when you need service. Here is how Airel-Quetin answers each question.
| Ask your supplier | Airel-Quetin answer | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Can the chair switch from right- to left-handed? | Yes, PE8 switches in a few seconds, with symmetrical layout | Group practices, dental colleges and left-handed dentists share one surgery |
| How is the unit's water kept free of germs? | IGN® + Calbenium®: continuous, automated decontamination and a weekly bacteriological reset | Biofilm in waterlines exposes patients and staff to bacteria through sprays and aerosols |
| Are suction lines and instrument heads decontaminated? | Aspisept® for suction hoses, Calbepuls® for instrument heads | Cross-contamination risk does not stop at the water |
| Does it support four-handed and 12 o'clock work? | Yes, dedicated positions for both | Faster procedures, less strain for the whole team |
| Will my patients be comfortable in long procedures? | 5-layer shape-memory upholstery, triple-articulation pneumatic headrest | A relaxed patient is an easier patient, and a practice they recommend |
| Who installs and services it locally? | Our partners for clinic set-up and after-sales across India | Uptime depends on local technicians and spare parts |
| Can I match it to my clinic's design? | 30 upholstery colours and finishes, including glitter finishes | Your surgery is part of your brand |
Hygiene · IGN® & Calbenium®
Dental unit waterlines let water stagnate, which favours biofilm and bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Staphylococcus aureus. Airel-Quetin developed its own answer: an exclusive system that treats the water of every spray.
The IGN® (Infection General Neutralizer), external or built into the chair, decontaminates the water circuits continuously and runs a weekly bacteriological reset of the whole installation. It works with Calbenium®, a disinfectant solution combining EDTA, benzalkonium chloride and chloramine.
Studies in Strasbourg and Lyon (France), Tanta (Egypt) and Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) confirmed its bactericidal activity and its ability to remove or prevent biofilm in real use. IGN/Calbenium is a Class IIa medical device.
