Medical Lab Design

Medical Lab Design

Medical laboratory design supports the essential and often life-saving work carried out in clinical laboratories in hospitals and other healthcare settings.

A well-functioning facility depends on efficient and optimised medical lab design, with sterile workspaces, convenient storage and access to all of the services and safety equipment you need. 

This is made possible by intelligent medical lab interior design (e.g. modular lab furniture and/or overhead provision of services) and through the use of modern materials like Corian. 

S+B have over 50 years of experience in all aspects of medical laboratory design. From floor plans and fume cupboards, to bespoke clinical laboratory furniture, we can provide everything you need from consultation right through to installation.

What is a medical lab?

Medical lab interior design relies on a strong understanding of what a medical lab is and the types of work carried out there.

While the definition can be quite broad, a medical laboratory generally handles clinical specimens and biological samples, which are analysed to help diagnose, treat and prevent disease.

This can range from blood samples and biopsies to immunological work and infection control, and is a key element in guiding most clinical decisions.

Precise demands vary. Some medical labs function as teaching facilities, while others are subject to the highest levels of biosafety controls. The interior design of your medical lab should reflect this - and your designer should understand it.

Medical lab layouts are not always set in stone. While it's normal to have some workbenches and storage fixed in place, you may want to consider how easily you can reconfigure the floor plan at a later date as the nature of your work evolves.

Because of this, good medical laboratory floor plan design creates spaces that work with made-to-measure furniture, which can be fully fitted or modular and mobile—whatever you need.

What equipment is needed in a medical lab?

Medical lab design may need to incorporate a wide range of lab equipment, from microscope tables and dissection benches to incubation chambers and centrifuges and analytical instruments like spectrometers and chromatographs.

Your medical technology laboratory floor plan should allow for integrated lab equipment, while providing enough workbench space for any portable and temporary devices (including suitable anchor points for centrifuges).

Comprehensive medical laboratory setup design will also ensure that all of your equipment has direct access to the services it requires, including:

• Electricity
• Gas
• Water
• Oxygen
• Refrigeration
• Heating
• Ventilation / Fume cupboard

Depending on the nature of your work, you may need a higher level of biosafe laboratory design, including cleanroom areas and hermetically sealed storage for specimens.
