Benches and casework, fume hoods, storage and safety cabinets — plus the stainless work, service fittings and one-off items a complete room needs. All built to your dimensions, in your finish, for your project.
Benches, hoods and storage share the same worktops, plinths and service fittings — so a room specified from one supplier lines up, both visually and at the pipework.
Fixed, mobile and wall benches on steel or wooden carcasses, with phenolic, epoxy, ceramic or stainless worktops. Sinks, taps, gas valves and power trunking are fitted at the factory.
Bench-top, floor-mounted and walk-in hoods in standard widths from 1000 to 1800 mm, ducted to your extraction route or supplied ductless with carbon filtration.
Chemical, acid, flammable, gas-cylinder and general-purpose cabinets — each engineered for its specific storage and safety requirements. Adjustable shelving, ventilation bungs and lockable doors, sized to the wall you actually have.
Most projects start with benches, hoods or storage, but a finished laboratory needs more than that. The same factory also builds:
Specifying a laboratory for the first time? Our Insights section covers how worktops, hoods and storage are normally chosen — worth reading before the BOQ is fixed.
The worktop usually decides how long a bench lasts. Here is how the four options compare for overseas projects.
| Phenolic resin | 12.7 mm or 16 mm. Resists most acids, solvents and heat to about 180 °C. The default choice for general and teaching labs. |
|---|---|
| Epoxy resin | 16 mm or 19 mm. Stronger against heat and aggressive acids than phenolic; heavier and more expensive. Specify for digestion and high-temperature work. |
| Ceramic | 20 mm. Scratch and heat resistant, easy to clean, but chips on impact. Common in Asian and European research labs. |
| Stainless steel 304 / 316 | 1.2 mm over a substrate. Non-porous and easy to sanitise; 316 for chloride and cleanroom environments. |
A DWG, a PDF layout, a BOQ spreadsheet or even a photo of the room is enough for us to start.
