Commercial
Lab at Biopolis, Singapore
Project Overview
Biopolis is Singapore’s biomedical research hub, and this project covered a laboratory within that precinct. Research laboratories demand flooring that is hygienic, chemically resistant and safe underfoot, supporting precise technical work in a tightly controlled setting where contamination must be kept to an absolute minimum.
For this project, Goodrich Global supplied Medintech Plus vinyl flooring for the lab.
Goodrich Specification
Medintech Plus was specified as a healthcare and laboratory-grade vinyl, engineered for environments where hygiene and cleanability are paramount. Its dense, homogeneous surface can be installed with heat-welded, sealed joints that resist liquid ingress, preventing spills and contaminants from penetrating the floor and harbouring bacteria between the seams.
The product offers a durable, low-maintenance finish that stands up to frequent disinfection, exposure to laboratory chemicals and the continuous movement of equipment and personnel. A measured slip resistance helps keep the working environment safe, while coved skirting detailing removes the hard floor-to-wall junction and supports the rigorous cleaning protocols a controlled facility operates under.
Project Outcome
The completed floor delivers a clean, durable and easily sanitised surface fit for demanding laboratory use, supporting the hygiene standards essential to credible research output. Its resilience ensures consistent performance across years of intensive technical activity, with the integrity of the sealed surface protecting both the work and the building fabric beneath it.
Goodrich Global supplies specialist vinyl flooring to research, laboratory and healthcare facilities across Singapore, with systems chosen for hygiene, chemical resistance and dependable long-term performance, backed by specification support for controlled environments.
