Hygienic equipment manufacturer, Teknomek, has launched a furniture range for laboratories.
The made-to-order product range is manufactured from mild steel, with white powder-coated frames to create a clean, contemporary look.
This is the first time Teknomek are offering powder-coated lab furniture.
What makes the furniture good for hygiene-controlled environments?
Cleanability and allowing good air circulation were key to the new line’s design. For example, unnecessary solid sides have been removed.
This new range offers laboratory managers C- and H-frame benches, island units, cupboards and shelving units, all products are available in a variety of sizes and configurations.
Both C- and H-frame benches have the option of a suspended rolling rail. This allows for under-counter cupboards to be added, offering a highly flexible storage solution.
The cupboards are raised off the floor so dust build-up is reduced and there is excellent access for cleaning, supporting strict hygiene standards.
Because cupboards and drawer units slide along the suspended rail, storage solutions can be easily reconfigured to meet changing laboratory needs or workstations which are shared between colleagues.
There is a significant demand for white powder-coated furniture for laboratories and changing rooms
Whilst the new Teknomek laboratory furniture range includes fixed-to-the-wall furniture for environments where a permanent solution is required, the majority of its laboratory tables and cupboards can be repositioned to suit changing requirements. Castors are also an option for laboratories that require easily moveable furniture.
For additional chemical, scratch and impact resistance, the products all feature Trespa (registered trademark) TopLab (registered trademark) PLUS worktops.
Trespa’s TopLab PLUS’ antibacterial surface is ideal for laboratories, research facilities and healthcare environments because it is ultra durable, non-porous and built to perform in environments where cleaning protocols are particularly robust, using harsh chemicals.
Michelle Locke, Product and Marketing Manager at Teknome, said: “Whilst our stainless-steel furniture is ideal for cleanroom environments, there is a significant demand for white powder-coated furniture for laboratories and changing rooms. We have created this new range to ensure that our customers can buy everything they need for a laboratory environment from us.
“One size definitely does not fit all when it comes to laboratories, so every time a customer selects from this new range, the product will be made to order. From sinks and benches to our marble-top balance desk, every product can be fully customised, making it perfect for purpose.
“As well as selecting the perfect size and configuration of furniture for the project in hand, customers can also choose from a range of colours in door fronts, drawers, handles and worktops, to complement the white powder-coated mild steel framework.”
