OnePointe Solutions manufactures laboratory casework, tables, countertops, storage and specialty workstations for hospitals, diagnostic facilities, clinical laboratories, pathology departments and medical research environments. We help coordinate the furniture package from preliminary scope through manufacturing and installation.
“Medical laboratory” can describe environments with very different workflows and risks. A routine clinic, high-volume diagnostic laboratory, pathology department and molecular testing facility may require different work surfaces, casework materials, containment equipment and cleaning procedures.Furniture selection should be based on the laboratory’s testing processes, chemicals, biological materials, equipment, cleaning regimen and required level of flexibility, not the medical setting alone.
Medical laboratory furniture should support the movement of samples, supplies, employees and information through the testing process. Applying Lean principles to the furniture plan can help reduce unnecessary movement, place frequently used materials closer to the point of use and create more consistent work zones.
OnePointe focuses on the laboratory furniture package. We help identify furniture requirements, plan casework and workstations within the available space, coordinate products with known equipment and utilities, manufacture the approved furniture and provide installation when included in the project scope.We work alongside the owner, laboratory personnel, architect, engineers, general contractor and equipment suppliers.
When designing blood banks and immunology centers, adherence to the Federal Code of Regulations 21CFR 211, subpart C "Current Good Manufacturing Practice for Finished Pharmaceuticals" is mandatory. This set of regulations prescribes the methods for storing, distributing, and transporting biological samples such as blood across different areas and facilities.Modular casework and floor plan layouts are crucial when configuring your analytical testing laboratory to align with these guidelines.
R&D programs rarely remain static. New equipment, changing processes and expanding teams can quickly alter how a laboratory operates. Modular tables, mobile storage, adjustable-height workstations and adaptable service systems help your space respond to new requirements without replacing the entire furniture package.
Our furniture supports various types of clinical and research testing environments.
We partner with you to design and manufacture lab furniture that fits your space, supporting your workflow along with integrating your equipment and facility plans. OnePointe does not provide architectural or engineering approval, design the building systems, validate clinical workflows, certify the laboratory or determine the facility’s regulatory obligations.
Durable work surfaces and organized spaces for intake and accessioning
Ergonomic workstations for samples pre and reagnet handling
Stable, functional spaces for instruments and data review
Proper storage and waste handling to support safety and compliance.
To aid in the organization and design of your medical lab, OnePointe Solutions offers modular furniture options that can be customized to perfectly meet the needs of your lab.
The success of any medical lab depends on the quality of its furniture. Our furniture meets all standard requirements for cleanliness and durability. It is also available in flexible and modular options, allowing your contract research organization lab to easily transition from one type of research to another without experiencing significant downtime or requiring a long adjustment period.
It’s wise to choose furniture materials that stand up to your cleaning and disinfection processes and experimentation. This supports a safe environment and perform over the long term. Check out our cleaning guide below for more information.
Combine fixed services and casework with modular tables and mobile storage to adapt to changing testing needs, new equipment and future growth.

OnePointe designs the laboratory furniture package around the room’s workflow, equipment and utility requirements. Our scope can include casework, countertops, sinks, laboratory tables, mobile storage, shelving, fume hoods and related furniture components. We also provide CAD and Revit drawings to help coordinate the furniture with the overall facility design.
“Medical-grade” is not one universal material or performance classification. The appropriate cabinetry depends on what happens in the room, the chemicals and biological materials being handled, the cleaning regimen, moisture exposure and required workflow. A clinical testing area, pathology laboratory and medical research laboratory may each require different materials despite all being considered medical environments.
There is no single material that is best for every medical laboratory. Powder-coated steel works well in many clinical and research environments, while stainless steel may be preferable where sanitation, moisture or aggressive cleaning is a priority. Phenolic resin can provide strong moisture and chemical resistance, but its compatibility with repeated disinfectant exposure should be reviewed before specification.
The countertop should be selected according to the chemicals, disinfectants, concentrations and cleaning frequency used in the laboratory. Epoxy resin, stainless steel, phenolic resin and solid-surface materials each perform differently. OnePointe can help evaluate the anticipated exposure, but the facility should provide its complete cleaning protocol before a surface is selected.
Yes. We can review an existing layout from the furniture and equipment coordination perspective, including workstation placement, clearances, storage, countertop runs and utility locations. Final responsibility for code compliance, egress, accessibility, room programming and the building layout remains with the project’s licensed architect and engineering team.
Potentially, but feasibility depends on the intended laboratory activities and the building’s existing conditions. A conversion may require architectural modifications, additional electrical capacity, plumbing, ventilation, life-safety improvements and permitting. OnePointe can support the laboratory furniture portion, while qualified architects, engineers and contractors must evaluate and prepare the building itself.
OnePointe can coordinate the furniture layout, work surfaces and required clearances around a biosafety cabinet. The cabinet type, containment level, exhaust requirements and certification should be determined by a qualified biosafety professional and equipment provider. Equipment requirements should be identified early so they can be incorporated into the furniture drawings.
No. OnePointe specializes in laboratory furniture design, manufacturing and installation. Architectural services, building construction, permitting, HVAC design, plumbing engineering, electrical engineering and life-safety planning must be performed by the appropriate licensed professionals. We coordinate with those project partners to help integrate the furniture into the completed laboratory.
