Infographic: Adaptable Lab Furniture Systems
Modern labs require flexibility allowing for easy reconfiguration of the lab space.
Let’s understand the SEFA guidelines for adaptable furniture.
Class 1
Floor mounted casework utilizes traditional base cabinet construction which is supported and attached to the floors and walls of the building.
Class 2
Wall rail casework systems use a wall-mounted fixed horizontal and/or vertical support rail from which the cabinetry is hung.
Class 3
Self Supporting Frame casework systems utilize a floor supported cantilevered support frame (C-Frame).
Class 4
Core based casework systems utilize a floor mounted support module (core) from which table frames, upper cabinets, shelving, service utility distribution, and ancillary items are suspended.
Class 5
Panel based systems are similar to Core based systems except they utilize a narrow support module, typically 6” or less.
Class 6
Table based systems use independent floor mounted self-supporting tables as the key component.
Class 7
Free Standing Workstations are table based systems utilizing floor mounted tables as the key component.
Class 8
Mobile Workstations are similar to Free Standing Workstations, but are typically mounted on casters to accommodate simple relocation
