LEADING UK LABORATORY FURNITURE SUPPLIERS
Assab Laboratory Furniture is a leading supplier of laboratory furniture. Its Wall Rail laboratory furniture system of worktops, shelves and overbench cabinets are fixed to sturdy metal rails not to the wall. This means they can be re-located with maximum ease and minimum disruption. Island and perimeter units are also available. Its Table Frame System for laboratory furniture is based on a very robust metal framework which can be formed into simple individual units up to complex island structures and continuous bench runs.
The solid laminated tops for Assab laboratory furniture are made of Trespa. The laboratory furniture cabinets and drawers are laminated. Metalwork for laboratory furniture is etched, primed, and finished in polyester coating, providing greater chemical resistance compared to epoxy finish.
ESA Laboratories, based in Kirkcaldy, Scotland, is part of the Havelock Europa group. It is a leading manufacturer of laboratory furniture. It brings together the expertise of ESA McIntosh, which is a leading supplier of educational furniture in the UK, with that of Clean Air Ltd, a supplier of fume cupboards and extraction systems.
Interfocus Laboratory Furniture of Cambridge is a leading supplier of laboratory furniture. It specialises in the design, manufacture and installation of laboratories and ancillary services. Its service includes all the stages from the first discussions of needs through to manufacture, installation and project management. Interfocus offers the options of fixing the laboratory bench surface directly onto the storage units below, or onto a steel structure which is independent of the storage units. The first approach is cheaper, but the steel structure is more flexible initially and when re-arrangements are needed. The standard Interfocus steel structure is constructed from square section steel tube, which is thirty millimetres wide on each side.
