How Predictive Modeling De-Risks Pharma Water Infrastructure
Predictive engineering platform allows lab planners and AEC teams to model utility demand, carbon emissions, and equipment sizing during conceptual design
The Science of Today’s Lab Design: Creating Shared and Versatile Spaces
Laboratories are increasingly being designed as flexible, long-term assets using “long life, loose fit” principles—emphasizing modular layouts, shared resources, and adaptable infrastructure—to accommodate evolving research needs and multi-tenant use
Invisible Risk: Why Ultra-High Purity Gas Systems Demand Specialized Design and Installation Expertise
In laboratory design, ultra-high purity (UHP) gas systems demand specialized specifications, materials, and qualified installation practices—distinct from standard high-purity or medical gas systems—because even trace contamination can undermine instrument performance, data integrity, and overall project success
Designing Flexible Laboratories with Overhead Power Distribution
Overhead plug-in busway systems enable more flexible, scalable laboratory design by replacing fixed conduit-based wiring with repositionable, continuous power access that reduces renovation disruption, improves efficiency, and supports evolving lab layouts over time
Power & Data Density for Liquid Handlers: Architecting for High-Throughput Utilities
As laboratories scale up their automation, the electrical and network infrastructure must evolve to support fleets of power-hungry liquid handlers like Hamiltons and Tecans. Strategic utility planning prevents catastrophic tripped breakers, ensures uninterruptible workflows, and guarantees seamless data transmission.
Electrification of the Lab: Moving Away from Natural Gas
Can a Boston lab survive without natural gas? The engineering reality of full electrification.
Designing the "Ghost" Corridor: Service Strategies for Flexibility
Keep the maintenance crew out of the clean zone. The strategic value of the service corridor.
Overhead Service Carriers: The Key to Plug-and-Play Utilities
Stop tearing up floors to move a sink. Why overhead utilities are the ROI king of flexibility.
Colorado’s First: Pioneering Net-Zero Energy and All-Electric Life Sciences Design
The Ridgeway Science & Technology project in Boulder, presented at the 2025 Lab Design Conference, showcases how IMEG Corporation and Conscious Bay are pioneering Colorado’s first net-zero energy, all-electric life sciences facility through flexible, data-driven design and innovative energy storage solutions
