A laboratory architect designs for function first: airflow direction, contamination zoning, chemical resistance, vibration isolation, service access and statutory safety. A regular architect focuses mainly on aesthetics and occupancy. In a lab, a wrongly placed drain or a short bench clearance can invalidate results or fail an audit, so every element is engineered against a scientific workflow.

A single-room laboratory or sample collection centre typically takes 4 to 6 weeks from approved drawings. A full diagnostic or analytical laboratory of 1,500–3,000 sq. ft. generally takes 10 to 16 weeks, including civil, MEP, modular furniture and commissioning. Timelines are confirmed only after the site survey and scope freeze.

Yes. We design to the spatial and environmental expectations of NABL, GLP and ISO 17025 — separate sample receipt and storage, controlled access zones, documented pressure cascades, temperature-mapped storage, chemical segregation and safety equipment placement. We are not an accreditation body, but our documentation helps your audit run smoothly.

Cost depends on cleanroom class, fume-hood count, HVAC complexity and furniture density. A basic laboratory interior fit-out typically starts around Rs. 1,800–2,500 per sq. ft., while ISO-class cleanroom and containment facilities range higher. We issue a transparent, itemised BOQ so you can see exactly where the budget is going.

In most cases yes. We plan phased execution with temporary containment barriers, night-shift working and dust-control measures so that critical operations continue. Utility changeovers are scheduled during low-activity windows, and temporary exhaust is provided where fume hoods must be relocated.

Absolutely. Our turnkey scope covers architectural design, civil and interior works, laboratory HVAC, exhaust and make-up air, acid-resistant plumbing, electrical and UPS distribution, gas manifold piping, modular furniture, cleanroom panels and final commissioning with documentation.
