Laboratory Markets & Industries Served

Quick answer: African Labs supports multiple industry laboratory projects with coordinated fit-out, infrastructure, equipment integration, refurbishment and technical services based on the actual samples or processes, equipment, workflow and site conditions.

Laboratory Markets & Industries Served should be planned around the actual laboratory process, equipment and users rather than treated as an isolated product or trade. African Laboratory Solutions (African Labs) provides laboratory infrastructure, specification, supply and installation support for new laboratories, replacement projects, refurbishments, relocations and reinstallation work across South Africa and selected African project markets.

The objective is to create laboratory infrastructure that is practical to install, appropriate for the application and coordinated with the surrounding technical services.

Common questions about Markets & Industries Served

What should a industry-specific laboratory project plan for?

Key considerations identified on this page include Confirmed markets served, Different markets require different infrastructure, African Labs service links, Planning and fit-out, Furniture and worktops, and Gas. The final specification should be confirmed against the actual laboratory process, site conditions and project scope.

Can one standard layout be used for every industry-specific laboratory?

No. The laboratory should be planned around the actual samples or processes, tests, equipment, throughput, users and site conditions rather than the industry label alone.
