Modernizing Research: Laboratory Renovation Success Story in Latvia
Time:2022.6.18
Country:Latvia
Scope: Laboratory layout redesign, custom lab furniture, benchtop fume hoods, ventilation coordination
To support expanding research activities and modern safety requirements, a research laboratory in Latvia partnered with Max Lab to renovate and modernize its existing laboratory space. The objective was to upgrade outdated workstations, improve ventilation efficiency, and create a safer, more ergonomic environment—without interrupting ongoing research operations.
Client Profile
Riga Advanced Biosciences Institute
This is a renovation lab,in beginning my client send me some pictures of old lab furniture as well as lab room architecture layout plan.
Established 1998, specializing in pharmaceutical and environmental research
120+ researchers across 8 departments
Challenges & Objectives
Outdated infrastructure: Original 1990s lab design hindered workflow
Space inefficiencies: 30% of floor space unusable due to poor layou, restricting movement and collaboration
Space constraints: requiring maximum functionality within the existing footprint
Limited ventilation efficiency: especially for chemical handling and sample preparation
Project Goals:
Achieve full regulatory compliance
Improve researcher productivity by 25%
Create flexible, future-proof workspace
Enhance safety without disrupting ongoing research
The client required a solution that balanced modern laboratory standards, cost efficiency, and minimal downtime.
Our Solution
Custom Laboratory Layout & 3D Planning
Max Lab developed a detailed 3D laboratory layout based on on-site measurements and workflow analysis. This allowed the client to clearly visualize the upgraded lab before installation and ensured optimal placement of:
-
Benchtop fume hoods
-
Wall-mounted lab benches
-
Central work areas
-
Storage and utility zones
The redesigned layout improved circulation paths while maintaining compliance with laboratory safety requirements.
Benchtop Fume Hood Integration
To address ventilation challenges, benchtop fume hoods were installed along the laboratory wall:
-
Compact design suitable for limited spaces
-
Efficient fume extraction connected to the existing exhaust system
-
Improved protection for researchers during chemical handling
This solution significantly enhanced laboratory safety while preserving valuable bench space.
Seamless Renovation with Minimal Disruption
One key requirement was maintaining laboratory operations during renovation. Max Lab coordinated installation in phases, ensuring:
-
Minimal interruption to daily research
-
Safe working conditions throughout the upgrade
-
On-time project completion
-
Modular Lab Furniture Upgrade
The renovation introduced custom modular laboratory furniture, including:
-
Wall benches with durable black worktops
-
Integrated sink units and service access points
-
Flexible under-bench storage for instruments and consumables
The modular system allows future reconfiguration as research needs evolve, extending the lab’s long-term value.
