The manufacturing process
At SB Labs we start by carefully designing your space to meet the precise needs of each client. These designs are created with a focus on quality and cost-efficiency, ensuring that the final products not only meet high standards but also provide good value. All bespoke laboratory furniture, worktops, fume cupboards, and storage solutions are manufactured at the state-of-the-art facility in the UK. This facility is equipped to produce high-quality products that are both durable and versatile to suit modern laboratory requirements. Materials and finishes are selected based on extensive experience to offer optimum durability, chemical resistance, hygiene and maintenance.
Advanced craftsmanship with cutting-edge materials
We use solid grade laminates, epoxy resin worktops, and stainless-steel sinks, to ensure the furniture’s longevity and performance in demanding environments. Throughout production, careful attention is paid to ergonomics, functionality and aesthetics to produce laboratory furniture that transform spaces to learn and research. By controlling manufacturing in-house ensures a seamless coordination with installation teams to ensure furniture and fume cupboards fit perfectly. This minimises installation issues, reduces maintenance requirements and maximises the efficiency of the finished laboratory environment.
