Planning for your Lab Fitout

If you are thinking of leasing or purchasing new laboratory premises, it is best to plan your laboratory fitout project well in advance, as usually there are many technical tasks that need to be completed before you can move into your new laboratory.

  • We will consider local planning regulations and National Construction Code (NCC) compliance requirements to decide if it is a suitable premise.
  • These can include deciding on suitable premises for your laboratory and feasibility studies on the best laboratory site.
  • We can consider retrofitting the space for modern compliance and upgrading the current infrastructure instead of building from scratch.
  • We consult with you regarding your needs and style preferences.
  • The laboratory planning process commences with a comprehensive survey of your lab space, followed by designing a layout that optimises lab workflow efficiency.
  • We can inspect your chosen spaces and offer advice as to the most appropriate lab fitout for your business.
  • We then select the most appropriate consultants for your project.
  • When you plan a lab fitout, it’s important to consider the lab’s needs and any safety and regulatory requirements. Below is a brief list of some of the things to consider.
  • The types of lab processes, experiments and materials that will be in your laboratory.
  • The special equipment that will be needed, such as extraction systems, industrial cleanrooms, biosafety cabinets and fume hoods.
  • Consider how to create energy efficiencies to meet sustainability goals
  • Check that there is adequate electric power and drainage systems for the lab’s industrial equipment.

Laboratory Design

Once you have found your new laboratory premises, we then start the laboratory design process. This usually involves creating concept layouts, detailed design and documentation for your project, preparation of working plans, specifications and budget estimates on the fitout of your new laboratory.

  • We can do a test fit of the laboratory layout on your chosen premises so you can see how your staff and equipment can fit into the space.
  • We design a layout that optimises laboratory workflow efficiency and is adaptable for future flexibility.
  • Then our interior designers use their experience and in-depth knowledge of design principles, concepts and best practices to create a project plan for your commercial laboratory fitout.
  • This project plan includes detailed drawings and budgets for the supply and installation of all fixtures, fittings and industrial equipment for your laboratory fitout.
  • Design of HVAC systems to control temperature, humidity and ventilation for the lab.
  • We also make sure the plans comply with the Building Code of Australia (BCA), Australian Standards, the Tenancy Fitout Guidelines for your building and local authority requirements.

Laboratory Refurbishments & Remodelling

  • We undertake all types of laboratory refurbishments, alterations, renovations and remodelling.
  • We can handle your project from concept through to completion.
  • We also handle all the authority approvals, including building management approval and council approval.
  • Every individual laboratory refurbishment is customised to suit your company’s requirements.
  • Some laboratory renovations are very involved with many trades and services, while others are more cosmetic, involving minor works such as re-painting, new floor coverings and new lab furniture.
  • Our laboratory refurb teams typically bring together resources from both our design and fitout teams to provide you with the best service for your renovation project.
  • If required, any noisy, dusty or disruptive work can be undertaken outside of normal laboratory hours, either after 5 pm Monday to Friday or at weekends.
  • We can complete your laboratory fitout in stages to minimise the impact on your staff and the daily operations of your business.
