Definition of a Container Laboratory

A container laboratory is a compact, autonomous, and transportable scientific and technical facility integrated into a standard container (usually 20 or 40 feet). It is designed to enable analyses, research, or decontamination in a confined and secure space, while complying with biological and environmental safety standards (BSL 1 to 4, ISO, WHO).

This type of laboratory is ready-to-use, equipped with all necessary facilities: effluent treatment, technical control, ventilation (Hvac), safety systems, and sometimes Clean-In-Place (CIP) stations. It can be easily relocated and integrated on-site, either temporarily or permanently.

Fields of Activity and Uses

A container laboratory can serve multiple sectors and applications:

  • Biotechnology & Pharmaceutical
    Production of cell or microbial cultures. Decontamination of effluents from BSL 1 to 4 laboratories. Backup laboratory to prevent production downtime
  • Scientific & Academic Research
    Biological or chemical analyses in remote locations. Field projects requiring a mobile laboratory
  • Industry & Environment
    Treatment and analysis of industrial effluents. Water or soil quality control. Rapid deployment on contaminated or temporary sites
  • Public Health & Safety
    Emergency laboratories for epidemics or health crises. Decontamination of infected areas or biological waste

Main Objectives

The objectives of a container laboratory are:

  • Safety: Ensure the protection of personnel, the public, and the environment through full containment and certified safety systems.
  • Mobility and Flexibility: Enable rapid deployment and transport to different sites without heavy construction work.
  • Autonomy: Integrate all necessary utilities (electricity, ventilation, effluent treatment, CIP cleaning) for independent operation.
  • Continuity of Production: Serve as a temporary or backup unit to maintain scientific or industrial activities.
  • Compliance: Adhere to international standards (WHO, ISO, BSL) for laboratories and effluent decontamination.

Safe Decontamination

The unit is designed to ensure complete effluent decontamination according to international standards:

  • Possible use of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and peracetic acid (C₂H₄O₃)

  • Double-wall panels for partitions and ceilings, similar to cleanroom standards

  • PVC flooring, glued, welded, impermeable, and non-porous

  • Sealed ventilation, recovery, and bypass systems for optimal containment

  • Emergency stop buttons for all critical functions
