Laboratory Cabinets, Furniture, Equipment

Selection of cabinets and counters must be based on intended use.
No material is good in all lab applications.

As a wholesale distributor we have selected quality laboratory furniture, equipment for you to select from.

Medical casework, cleanroom cabinets, some lab tables and hoods, some counters with sinks in food labs, should be stainless steel. We can help with custom stainless steel lab fabrications.

We like to assist with selection to insure the right material or appropriate grades is selected.

We want our clients to understand which features and benefits are important.

Lab Cabinets vs Lab Furniture:

Chemical and Corrosion Resistant Laminate Lab Furniture:



1. Modern Laminated Lab Furniture System Bench

   Lab Furniture in plastic laminate - our standard lab cabinet catalog
   Our laboratory plastic laminate furniture brochure in PDF format, use back arrow after viewing.

   Furniture is capable of being a free standing unit like a table that can be removed or moved and is installed so it can be removed and relocated. Cabinets by the way they are installed and fabricated become part of the building in which they are installed.

   Our laminated research islands have a concealed access trough for communications and network cables. These modern laminated bench units pictured above provide a wide clear span between upright supports. Within the supports below the shelf, we have electical wiremold power strips. Wiremold or Plugmold on our unit is convenient, supplies ample power, and provides improves access to plug in equipment.

   This lab bench system will not have vibration issues.
   Relocation of some of base unit is possible, important and can be easy and effortless as some have concealed casters with locks.

   All our laboratory furniture is USA made and USA materials.

   Metal lab furniture is a good choice for some food labs and stainless steel, standard grade is 304; lab grade is one of the best choices, unless chemicals are used. Type 316 stainless steel lab tables and cabinets is best if chemical are in use. Lab grade also known as marine grade, used in marine applications or when chemicals are going to be used is type 316. Strong acids attack even 316 stainless, we recommend polyproplene cabinets or phenolic casework in that application.

   When contaimination is a concern, stainless steel is currently the material of choice.
   If contamination is a concern but not a critical concern, chemical resistant laminates can be used for counter tops and cabinets.

   When applying (GMP) Good Manufacturing Practices, following HCAPP, stainless steel counters and welded construction is important. Many are starting with a Homeland Security Lab Plan. We have assisted with quality control issues, worked with improving recommended best practices and have a great network of professionals that help us.

   Styles of Lab Counter tops common in working laboratories:
   
   Standard depth of a lab top is 23" to 30"(deck)and thickness of 3/4" to 1-1/8" with curbs also called backsplashes usually 4, 6, 7 inch high. Also still used a style called box curb or ledge back which can have deck of 23 to 30" with splash 6-8" high and a ledge cap or shelf over pipe chase which can be 6-8 inch.

   Standard Epoxy Edge detail is 1/16" bevel, 1/8"bevel or 3/16" radius; others add to leadtime & cost as does colors other than black.
   
   Slab style or flat slabs are used on islands, free standing bench or table tops.
   Islands can use slab or raised curb in center with a cap or shelf. Islands tops are are 36, 48, 54 and some 60 inch wide. Wider than 60 inch is not recommended as few persons will be able to reach anything on the raised cap or reagent shelves or in a wall case supported on the ledge or center shelf.

   Slab or rised ledge cap on islands can be 12" to 18" and as long as the island, reagent shelves or wall cases can be supported and secured on them.

   We have assisted with OEM lab equipment developement, Best Practice development, Compliance & Code sources. First look to Governmental Hygienists for Best Recommended Practices, then FDA, USDA and other agencies applicable to your lab, then lab furniture trade groups. Scientific Equipment & Furniture Association is an agreed upon by manufacturers membership pool of information: Webpage at /www.sefalabfurn.com/
   It cost a considerable amount of money to be a member and with that comes advanages in being advertised on the site and influence in recommendations; but this is still a good general site of information upon which most agree or at least support the general installation practices and minimum requirements. There are other documents, but by requiring "compliance with recommended SEFA practices and their installation methods" you will apply a minimum standard of acceptable materials and performance to achieve compliance if you need to require or correct problems of installation or material performance. However, the fact that it is identified as a laboratory project puts some of this upon the bidder whether or not the bidder or supplier understands the implications of bidding on a laboratory project.
   The reason more laboratory projects go design-build and owners act as the contracting firm, contract with others if your firm does not have the capability to be the manager, but this will provide more control of quality and end result. We have been involved with several very successful owner (partnering) projects using work orders. It helps to have everything in writing and use a simple partnering agreement and determine change order issues and markup and labor cost. A budget and then a time and material job (T/M) can be good for you and the trades doing the actual work. Check references, check records on State website before doing business with any construction company to be sure they are bonded and in good standing with the State.

   Product Technical Consulting - development, and problem resolution with quality issues, using technologies to improve, combine or create new composition.
