Nestle Laboratory

• Project Overview
Norlab partnered with one of the world’s leading food and beverage companies to supply specialised furniture and storage solutions for their internal testing and quality assurance operations. The nestle laboratory project required a carefully considered selection of equipment capable of withstanding the high-throughput, hygiene-critical conditions typical of food science environments. Norlab supplied phenolic benchtops, metal cabinets, laboratory chairs, and sample storage cabinets—a combination that addressed both the functional workflow and the strict cleanliness standards governing the nestle laboratory day-to-day operations.

• The Specific Need
Food science laboratories operate under a distinct set of pressures compared to general research facilities. The nestle laboratory required surfaces that could be sanitised repeatedly without degrading, storage that could keep raw samples physically separated from finished product references, and seating that allowed technicians to work comfortably through long analytical shifts. Beyond durability, traceability and organisation were central concerns—sample integrity depends on a well-ordered storage system that prevents cross-contamination and supports accurate record-keeping throughout the testing cycle.

• Our Solution
Norlab addressed each requirement with a targeted product selection for the nestle laboratory. phenolic benchtops were specified for their impermeable surface, resistant to moisture and repeated sanitisation. metal cabinets provide lockable general storage, keeping the workspace uncluttered and compliant with safety protocols. sample storage cabinets offer a dedicated system for cataloguing and retrieving test samples, ensuring clear segregation throughout the quality control process. laboratory chairs with easy-clean upholstery and adjustable height settings complete the solution, supporting technician comfort without compromising hygiene standards.

• The Result
The equipment supplied by Norlab gave the nestle laboratory a more structured and hygienic operating environment. Durable benchtops have held up reliably under intensive daily use, while the combination of metal cabinets and sample storage cabinets has brought order to what was previously a fragmented storage setup. Technicians now work within a space where every item has a designated place, reducing preparation time and minimising the risk of sample mix-ups. The laboratory chairs have contributed to improved comfort during prolonged testing sessions, and the overall fit-out reflects Norlab’s ability to deliver practical, hygiene-conscious solutions to quality-critical laboratory environments.
