The project builds on LJJ’s experience of laboratory schemes and will include the design and installation of class A, B and C ductwork appropriate to the low-risk CL2 status.

DALI lighting systems in the laboratory and office areas will include manual on and absence-detection off functionality.

Contracts manager Jason Burns, comments, ‘While the scheme involves a relatively low containment level classification, this remains a complex programme with some very specific requirements, both in terms of the CL2 facility itself and the infrastructure works to aid future development.’
