TFI manufactures a wide range of customized and specialized furniture required for various types of industries depending on the nature of the industry, budget, durability of the lab and long term plans of the organization.
TFI is constantly researching and developing solutions to improve the quality of laboratory and technical furniture. Thus we have broadly classified laboratory furniture design and manufacturing into 4 categories.
BASIQUE SERIES | ROBUSTE SERIES | ELASTIQUE SERIES | COMBINATION SERIES |
The type of furniture series is selected based on the nature of work, type of laboratory and budgetary allocations.
BASIQUE SERIES
Basique series offers a system which is most economical. All the cabinets are floor mounted and the worktop is directly supported by the cabinets and panels. No additional frame work support is required in this series. This system offers greater more storage space but flexibility is limited. The Basique series is normally preferred in educational laboratories.
ROBUSTE SERIES
Robuste series is designed for heavier loads. For laboratories with heavy equipments the work tops are placed on metal frames. The frames are arranged vertically and horizontally to give direct support to the worktop. The cabinets are placed on the horizontal supports of the frame work. The work benches are extremely sturdy and stable. The Robuste series is preferred in industries where heavy equipments are used.
ELASTIQUE SERIES
Elastique series is used where flexible movement of cabinets is required. Worktops are mounted on cantilever or ‘C’ frames in Elastique series. It also enables easy access for the plumbing, gas, electrical or any other service connections. Under bench cupboards are mobile or suspended and installed off the floor, which facilitates easy cleaning as well. This series provides great flexibility to the user and clear access to the floor space. The “C’ frames are supplied with height adjustable leveling jacks to attain perfect balance of the work bench. Units can be added or removed if basic needs change, without altering the basic superstructure.
COMBINATION SERIES
The above systems can be mixed to suit the needs of each individual laboratory. This would provide an ideal laboratory standard for deriving optimum benefit for the work place.
The furniture system to be used can be selected considering the nature of industry need, storage and space requirements, at the same time considering future additions or changes. It offers the user optimum ease of use and stability. Our laboratory furniture is designed keeping in mind comfort, safety, ease of use and aesthetics, with functionality of the system given top priority.
Cabinet Systems
Our cabinet systems encompass the prime qualities of flexibility of the components, quality of product, and attention to detail.
Cabinets come in standard widths of: 450mm, 600mm, 900mm, and 1200mm. we also fabricate sizes suited to client requirements considering the availability of space, size of the equipment to be placed and so on.
UNDER BENCH CABINETS | WALL STORAGE CABINETS | TALL STORAGE CABINETS |
OPEN STORAGE CABINETS | DISPLAY CABINETS | CORNER CABINETS | LOCKERS
TROPHY CABINETS | PHARMACY CABINETS | MOBILE STORAGE CABINETS | FILING CABINETS |
The selection of the type of cabinet must be based on the type of lab work to suit the nature of industry, budget, durability of the lab and long term plans of the organization.
