SCHOOLS / UNIVERSITIES

Provides School, University with state of the art surface.

Seamless, non-porous and hard-wearing, proved to be an ideal fit in the design of a new, wet laboratory facility.

The Teaching Space Project delivered a high-tech PC2 undergraduate interactive wet laboratory facility. Space has been designed to fill identified key gaps in the school’s upper-level undergraduate teaching program.

The project provides the ability to instruct students in modern biological techniques Requiring a high level of containment, and the capacity to deliver small-group
tutorial-based instruction within the context of computer-based learning. The aim was to provide high quality, state-of-the-art teaching spaces that are future-oriented and have the facilities and flexibility to teach 21st-century biology.

Within the laboratory, Solid Surfaces were used for the desks, including desk legs and footrests, custom-built sinks and wall linings in color Aspen Glacier. These surfaces were used not only for their visual appearance and design flexibility but also because they are hard-wearing, non-porous and seamless — making it an ideal product for physical containment laboratory design.
