Hospital and laboratory furniture is a specialised category that differs from standard office or HoReCa furniture — it requires higher resistance to chemicals, easy disinfection, precise ergonomic compliance for medical staff work, and often specific storage systems. BHS's ability to offer custom-designed furniture allows every medical institution to obtain a precisely tailored solution.
Requirements for hospital and laboratory furniture
Furniture for medical and laboratory environments must meet special functional and hygiene requirements. Stainless steel work surfaces — resistant to chemical disinfectants, easy to clean, without microbe accumulation zones in grooves. Chemically resistant laminate coatings or powder coating for the body — durability against medical disinfectants. Minimisation of grooves and joints — hygienic connections that prevent dirt accumulation. Ergonomic height for work surfaces — heights based on medical staff work physiology may differ from standard. Specific storage systems — storage of medical materials, instruments, reagents and documents with appropriate protection. Also explore bar projects and café projects.
Types of spaces suitable for BHS solutions
BHS custom furniture solutions are suitable for various medical and laboratory formats. Clinical laboratories — work tables for reagent preparation, storage systems for chemical materials, sinks for laboratory processes. Dental and medical procedure rooms — ergonomic instrument tables, material cabinets and work surfaces. Hospital kitchens and food distribution areas — HoReCa-class furniture with high hygiene requirements. Ward and patient room equipment — custom storage systems for medical inventory. Research laboratories — work tables with special surfaces for chemical resistance. Also explore restaurant projects and pastry shop projects.
Material quality and durability
The choice of materials for hospital and laboratory furniture is critical to its functionality and durability. Stainless steel (grade 304 or 316) is the optimal work surface choice for laboratories and medical spaces — corrosion-resistant, chemically resistant, meets sterilisation requirements and is easy to disinfect. HPL laminate coating for the body — durable, hygienic and available in various colours to match the space concept. Antimicrobial coatings — specialised surface coatings with antimicrobial properties for medical spaces with high infection control requirements. Aluminium or stainless steel corner protectors — additional protection against impact damage in high-use zones. BHS advises on material selection according to the specific requirements of each space.
HoReCa use scenarios
Hospital catering department — stainless steel furniture and work surfaces for food preparation, processing and distribution areas, meeting both HACCP and medical institution hygiene requirements. Clinical laboratory — custom-designed work tables with chemically resistant surfaces, sinks and equipment storage systems. Medical room modernisation — furniture replacement with new custom solutions for better ergonomics and hygiene.
