Research Lab

The center of activity at PharmAgra is the research laboratory, a 4,000-square-foot lab containing 26 fume hoods divided into four work areas. For easy access, common analytical equipment is located on the counters at the rear of the laboratory. The easily accessible analytical lab and flammable solvent storage room help create a spatially optimized work environment with all distances minimized.

The laboratory is separated from the office area by a storefront glass wall that not only allows for diffusion of natural light into the lab area, but also serves to increase visibility for safety purposes. To facilitate communication, chemists' desks are located in the office area across from their group leader.

The research lab features:

• 4,000 square feet
• 22 bench hoods
• 4 walk-in hoods
