Opportunity

Canadian Scientific was tasked to supply and install specialized laboratory furniture for the University of Toronto Earth Sciences Center in Toronto, Ontario.

Main research areas in the University of Toronto Earth Sciences Center include biogeosciences, earth and planetary materials, earth surface processes, economic geology, environmental sciences, geophysics and tectonics, paleoceanography and paleoclimatology, and quaternary science.

Response

In collaboration with Marant Construction GC and ENFORM architects, we outfitted the lab with metal lab casework by Air Master Systems including 4 Titan Table frames, 4 Titan Shelf Kits, standard base cabinets, sink cabinets, and mobile cabinets. Additionally, we installed chemically resistant phenolic countertops with a backsplash, and a Durcon epoxy black lipped sink.Awarded in late 2024 and brought to completion in 2026, this project demonstrates Canadian Scientific’s ability to execute fully customized laboratory environments by working seamlessly alongside architects and construction partners to deliver technically advanced solutions.
