Creating a Dream Lab: We have the Technology Channels that work for school science lab !

The interest of young people in science is developed by inspiring and knowledgeable teachers, technicians and properly planned Science Laboratory.

From a Primary school lab to a Nuclear Science Laboratory , we are a professional company dedicated to supporting the excellence in school science Lab Furniture.

“School science laboratories are an expensive investment and are expected to last for many years.

A poor / good design will have positive or negative impact on generations of pupils, teachers and technicians.” 

- The Association for Science Education.

School lab furniture project requires a detailed planning and preparation.

Here are some of the main factors which will really impact on the Quality , Price and Utility of the furniture.

• 1. Age of the students to whom we are planning for the laboratory.

  In general , if it planned by doing in standing , the 900mm height table top is planned. But this is good for industrial European environment. This was blindly followed all over the word across all the laboratories. But this is not holds good for Asian and Indian students at school level.  We recommend students in India, age group less than 10 years, 750mm height table top and for age group above 10 years and up to 17 years, 850 mm table top for the practicals planned in standing.



• 2. Subject to which the lab is planned.
  
  

      School Chemistry Laboratory Furniture.

  Safety, Eyewash, Fire extinguisher, spillage kit, First aid box , chemicals and glassware storage, Air Went and Fume Hood, Spacing and Emergency exit, water Inlet,Outlet and Sink planning,Spot Reagent Rack and the Movement of the students lab dimensions and the total number of students planned per batch Table top and Material of construction for the under benchModules.

  These are the essentials to be considered before making a plan for school chemistry laboratory furniture. Some more excellent ideas you may get it from Pinnacle.

      The under bench Module.

  Universally, the best under bench module is made by using Galvanised Iron sheets . This is nothing but zinc coated steel sheets with moderate flexibility and corrosion resistant. Powder coating on the surface makes the surface more protective against rusting and will look great. Many colour option are possible. When it comes for the school science lab, especially for school chemistry lab it is moderately inert for chemicals vapour, moisture, climatic change. For School physics laboratory, the under bench modules made by GI sheets considered to bethe most safest one against electrical short circuit and fire hazards. For school computer science labs , this material will more sturdy and students cannot write on the surface using pen and pencil.

  
  

  Table top

  • Granite.
  • Phenolic Resin Laminate.
  • Epoxy composite slab.
  • Plywood, Particle board, Solid wood.

  We have the first three options . We don't recommend wood in any form inside the School science lab due to the fact that harm to the environment, Fire hazard and Non-modular in nature.

  Though  Epoxy and Phenolic are good in many aspects, it is very costly and for the school science lab the granite is best due to some of its exclusive properties such as  highly heat resistant, scratch free, writing free and more economic than the other two options.

  
  

  Epoxy impregnated Granite slabs for School Science Lab table top

  Our granites are not just granites, we do epoxy resin impregnation on granite surface multiple times to make the granite non porous. The granite slabs we offer are tested with ultrasonic probe for the natural intrinsic cracks. we give guarantee for the granite breaking for 3 years.

The room drawing , plumbing and electrical drawing , no of students per batch are the basic requirements to prepare the initial drawing for the budgetary quote.

The designing involves the space availability , your budget limitations , lab room positioning at the building any many more . You may get some great ideas from this website https://envoplan.co.uk/education-news/how-to-design-the-perfect-school-science-lab.

Apart from the design of the lab furniture for the individual CBSE School science lab , the lay out for the cbse school chemistry is entirely different from the cbse school biology lab and cbse school computer science laboratories. Where as cbse school physics lab requires both dark room and natural light for optical experiments.
