Architects & Lab Planning

Resources for Architects,  Lab Planners and Designers

LabAire is a US manufacturer of fume hoods, wet/dry benches, polypropylene casework and accessories for chemical, environmental, university and research laboratories.  From laboratory expansions and upgrades to new facility construction, we are here to help you create an environment that flows, while meeting and exceeding industry safety standards to protect users.

Helping you Visualize Excellence for your Next Laboratory Design Project

Whether your laboratory project is fully designed, or at the concept stage, we work collaboratively with your team to identify and specify solutions that meet your needs. We help you define which industry standards may apply, including ANSI, ASHRAE, AIHA, NFPA, NSF, UL, ADA and OSHA when planning your facility.

Work with our Experienced Team 

Our team can assist with coordination between building codes, industry standards, and integration into existing or proposed building services. We can help you –

  • Consider ADA standards when it comes to providing accommodation for accessible lab design, benches, fume hoods, sinks and fixtures.
  • Comply with national or state OSHA recommendations for chemical resistance and cleanability, ventilation of hazardous fumes and electrical safety.

The Right Products Built to Suit

When solid polypropylene is the best choice for your facility, LabAire brings you the expertise of over 70 years of assembling and welding thermoplastics.

Why does this make our products special?  Our experienced production team understands what it takes to craft high-quality products, and small details matter – like continuously welded seams, leakproof drawers and shelves and sturdy work surface attachments.

You can select from a range of modular casework components to maximize your budget, and when you need tailored solutions, work with our designers to add custom sizes and features.

Fume hoods can be customized  – whether it be a custom size, or the inclusion of an optional feature from our extensive list.  For applications requiring FM4910 flame-resistant polypropylene, we offer several size and grades.

Our polypropylene is produced in the US, and we fabricate our products in Minnesota. 

We’re Here to Help you Exceed Industry Standards

We know how important it is to protect your laboratory, personnel and products.

LAS laboratory products are designed and manufactured to meet or exceed industry standards. These standards address laboratory ventilation, fume hood performance, fire safety, and personnel protection in labs dealing with hazardous chemicals.

Our commitment to excellence in manufacturing is reflected by our ISO 9001: 2015 certification – assuring you of quality management and inspection processes for the products that we provide.

We Make it Easy to Specify Products for Your Laboratory

LAS products can be specified through RIB SpecLink software, facilitating integration into architectural and laboratory planning specifications. 

RIB SpecLink is a cloud-based specification software developed by RIB Software, designed to assist architects, engineers, and construction professionals in creating and managing construction specifications efficiently.

We have also developed our own 3 part specifications, offer technical articles that provide insight into industry standards, and can connect you with our team of experienced Manufacturer’s Representatives in your area.
