Having worked alongside third party lab fit-out companies, Timstar wished to be able to offer customers a truly turnkey in-house service – dealing with one friendly team, from render to reality.
We are an expert ISO 9001 accredited team, drawing expertise from our in-house space designers, layout and space planners, and education sector health and safety specialists as well as consulting regularly with teachers and technicians.
We can provide fit-for-purpose science spaces, either for new build or the renovation of existing spaces.
Inspirational Learning Environments
We understand that for most staff, redesigning an educational space may only happen a few times during a career. For us it’s our passion and we will happily support you and share our expertise to create spaces that work.
A Timstar lab provides space for a mixture of practical and non-practical activities and includes consideration of demonstrations, presentations and discussion, individual, small group, and class work, experimentation, and research.
We create attractive, engaging laboratory spaces to stimulate pupils’ learning, alongside well-planned preparation areas for teaching and technical staff.
Customised lab design
We’ll work with you to create an inspirational new science laboratory. Our specialist design team will consult with you and your colleagues to make layout suggestions that will maximise your space and budget.
We have taken care that the elements we offer are robust and appropriate for school use and place importance on providing quality furniture and equipment that will stand the test of time.
For full fit-out projects or multiple spaces we will illustrate our ideas using CAD drawings and if appropriate 3D colour renders to help you visualise the proposed space.
A Turnkey Service
Once a design is approved, we will then discuss programming the work at a time to suit you and hand-over to our Project Management team.
Our team can coordinate the supply & installation of your school science laboratory furniture and equipment. Our solution includes the coordination of all trades – an invaluable service for busy school staff.
When your space is complete, and if desired, our team can unpack and stock your space with essential items from the Timstar range.
Uniquely, Timstar can offer a complete Chemical Store service. Our in-house expert can assist you with ordering all that you will need to stock your store, and then unpack and put away all chemicals following all Health and Safety requirements.
