The client is a Canadian malt production and specialty grain processing company serving breweries and distilleries with customized malt products.
To maintain consistent product performance and support product development, the company conducts continuous laboratory analysis covering grain quality, wort characteristics, and biochemical parameters during the malt production process.
With the expansion of its laboratory capabilities, the client planned to establish a new quality control laboratory to improve testing efficiency, sample management, and daily laboratory operations.
Vitallab was selected to provide a complete laboratory solution, including customized laboratory furniture, safety equipment, storage systems, and laboratory instruments.
Before starting the project, the client provided architectural drawings and preliminary laboratory layout ideas.
Based on the available space and laboratory workflow requirements, Vitallab optimized the layout to create an organized testing environment.
The main requirements included:
The final laboratory design focused on combining functionality, safety, and long-term usability.
For routine sample preparation and cleaning operations, Vitallab supplied a customized side bench equipped with double sinks.
The workbench was designed according to the client's workflow requirements and reserved dedicated space for a future built-in bottle washing machine.
This integrated planning allowed the laboratory equipment and furniture to work together efficiently while maintaining a clean and organized workspace.
A central laboratory island bench was installed as the main testing area.
To maximize laboratory space utilization, overhead cabinets were added above the central bench, providing additional storage for frequently used laboratory supplies and equipment accessories.
The combination of:
helped improve operational efficiency and reduced unnecessary movement during testing procedures.
Food and beverage testing laboratories require reliable safety management, especially when handling chemicals, reagents, and testing processes.
Vitallab supplied and integrated multiple laboratory safety systems, including:
A laboratory fume hood was provided for experiments involving chemical reagents and processes requiring controlled ventilation.
A biosafety cabinet was supplied to support safe sample handling and laboratory protection requirements.
An explosion-proof safety cabinet was installed for secure storage of flammable substances and chemical materials.
The laboratory was also equipped with:
to enhance emergency response capability.
Because malt testing requires organized sample identification and long-term storage management, Vitallab developed a customized drawer storage solution.
The cabinet features:
Each drawer can be independently classified and labeled, allowing laboratory staff to quickly identify and retrieve samples.
The adjustable internal structure also improves space utilization by supporting different sample container sizes.
This customized sample management system provides a practical solution for laboratories handling multiple testing batches and product categories.
Beyond laboratory furniture, Vitallab also provided supporting laboratory instruments according to the client's testing requirements.
The supplied equipment included:
By combining laboratory furniture and equipment supply, Vitallab helped the client establish a more complete laboratory environment through a single supplier.
During the project, the client purchased additional products from different suppliers.
To simplify international transportation, Vitallab provided a container consolidation service.
The process included:
This service helped the client maximize container utilization and reduce international shipping costs.
Through customized laboratory planning, furniture manufacturing, equipment supply, and logistics coordination, Vitallab successfully delivered a complete malt quality control laboratory solution for the Canadian client.
The completed laboratory provides:
From initial layout optimization to final container delivery, Vitallab supported the client with a complete laboratory solution tailored to food and beverage testing applications.
Vitallab provides customized laboratory furniture, laboratory equipment integration, and turnkey laboratory solutions for food, beverage, industrial, and research applications.
