Specialized Laboratory Furniture for Schools

Laboratory furniture requires specialized design considerations that differ significantly from regular classroom furniture. School labs must provide safe, durable work surfaces that withstand chemicals, heat, and heavy equipment while meeting CBSE, ICSE, and state board infrastructure requirements. CBM IMPEX supplies lab furniture specifically designed for Indian school laboratories, ensuring your science, computer, and language labs meet both educational and safety standards.

Chemistry and physics labs demand particularly robust furniture. Our chemistry lab benches feature acid and alkali resistant tops that withstand spills from common laboratory chemicals. Built-in sinks with proper drainage, reagent shelves at appropriate heights, and gas pipeline integration options make our benches suitable for practical experiments specified in Class 9-12 curricula. Physics lab tables are constructed to support heavy equipment like oscilloscopes, spectrometers, and other instruments without wobbling or vibration that could affect experiments.

Computer labs require furniture that addresses cable management, equipment ventilation, and ergonomic positioning for extended use. Our computer lab desks include built-in cable trays, CPU holders, and monitor risers that create organized, safe workstations. For biology labs, we provide microscope tables with proper lighting provisions and specimen storage solutions. Language labs need individual listening stations with privacy panels and headphone storage. Whatever your laboratory requirements, we can provide furniture that enhances the practical learning experience while maintaining safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes chemistry lab furniture different from regular furniture?

Chemistry lab benches require chemical-resistant work surfaces that withstand acids, alkalis, solvents, and heat. Our chemistry lab tops use materials like epoxy resin, phenolic resin, or chemical-resistant laminates that can handle spills from hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, and other reagents used in school experiments. Regular furniture would deteriorate quickly and create safety hazards in a chemistry lab environment.

What is the standard height for school lab benches?

Lab bench height depends on whether students work sitting or standing. For seated work (typical in computer and biology labs), bench height should be 750mm with matching 440mm stools. For standing work (common in chemistry and physics practicals), bench height of 900mm is standard. Some schools prefer adjustable-height benches to accommodate different experiments. We can customize heights based on your students' age groups.

Do you provide sinks and water supply fixtures for lab benches?

Yes, we supply lab benches with integrated sinks, taps, and drainage. Chemistry labs typically need corrosion-resistant PP (polypropylene) sinks and acid-resistant drainage. Biology labs can use standard stainless steel sinks. We coordinate with your plumber to ensure proper water supply and drainage connections. Emergency eyewash stations and safety showers can also be integrated into our lab furniture layouts.

What safety features should lab furniture have?

Essential safety features include chemical-resistant surfaces, rounded edges, stable non-tip construction, proper ventilation spacing, and fire-resistant materials. Our lab benches include provisions for fume hood placement, fire extinguisher mounting, and first aid kit storage. All furniture meets BIS safety standards. We also provide lockable chemical storage cabinets with proper ventilation for reagent storage.

What furniture do computer labs need?

Computer labs require specialized desks with cable management systems (trays, grommets, and conduits), CPU holders or storage compartments, keyboard trays, and proper depth for monitors. Tables should be 600-750mm deep to accommodate monitors at safe viewing distance. Ergonomic chairs with adjustable height prevent strain during extended use. We also supply server racks and instructor stations for computer labs.

How do I plan a lab layout for maximum student capacity?

Lab layout depends on room dimensions, experiment types, and student batches. Island bench arrangements maximize capacity while perimeter benches improve supervision. CBSE recommends minimum 10 sq.ft per student in science labs. We provide free layout planning - share your room dimensions and we will design an optimal arrangement considering safety clearances, emergency exits, and utility connections. Our team has designed labs for schools across Bangalore following board guidelines.
