Creating an engaging learning environment
When designing science laboratories where students will be learning biology, physics and chemistry, it is pivotal to create a space that engages them during both practical and theory lessons. We tailor the design of your furniture to perfectly fit any space, achieve a desired aesthetic, turning a vision into a reality that meets your practical requirements.
You will be provided with a range of layouts to meet different teaching and learning styles, following conversations and planning meetings to discuss your ideas and requirements.
Article: How to Design a School Laboratory
Designing a modern science laboratory for schools is about far more than fitting benches and sinks into a room. Today’s schools need flexible, future-ready environments that inspire curiosity, support hands-on learning, and meet strict safety standards, all while staying within budget.
A comprehensive approach to school laboratory design is essential for creating effective learning environments that meet the unique needs of educational institutions. School science laboratories should be a long-term investment that positively influences teaching and learning.
Flexible and custom materials
Our design process is led by your specific requirements and ideas, from layout and materials to finish and colour.
We provide a number of options and suggestions for each stage of the project to enable you to make informed decisions on space utilisation, budgets and creating the desired learning environment.
We only use the most appropriate materials and fittings for such a demanding space, creating high quality and long-lasting furniture. We supply the latest gas and water taps, sinks and waste kits to provide a modern feel to your space.
Carefully introducing colour into science lab furniture is an important consideration. You may want to include colours to reflect your school’s branding or departmental colour schemes.
Worktops are manufactured using Trespa which is highly durable and chemical resistant.

Science Laboratory Furniture FAQ
Depending on the function of each laboratory, we can provide the relevant science-specific hardware.
You may require a ‘wet’ or ‘dry’ lab, you may require a subject-specific lab, or you may require a multi-purpose science lab that requires gas, water/waste elements, as well as a fume cupboard – all of which we can cater for.

Of course, we aim to accommodate whatever the floor space allows us to.
Specific heights of work benches can be included to ensure tools are at the correct working height.
We can provide deeper worktops to allow overhangs for clamping, we can use Trespa, hardwood or solid surfaces (depending on your requirements).
Also, we can provide white goods and appliances or leave provisions for them within our proposal.
It can be dependent upon the laboratory’s function as much as budget.
We can provide drop-in stainless-steel sinks as well as undermount epoxy resin or ceramic sinks, for example.
We supply Vulcathene wastes and bottle traps to ensure they stand the rigours which repeated chemical usage can throw at them.
Services are always discreetly concealed, with accessible panels to aid maintenance and repairs.
Air circulation is critical in most laboratories, and you will find our infills, end panels and service units vented to assist with this.
Designing a school science laboratory requires a collaborative approach, involving stakeholders to create a safe, engaging, and practical space. As well as the functionality and aesthetics, a key focus should be on value for money, to install a science laboratory suitable for today and tomorrow. Read more
