Modules - Prefabricated, Customizable Workspace to Alleviate Space Constraints
June 29, 2011 - Is your facility faced with space constraints? Do you need a fast and cost-effective solution? Charles River has that solution: Modules. Modules are prefabricated structures which can be delivered to your site fully assembled, allowing for the rapid addition of workspace. Modules meet and uphold stringent biocontainment and biosecurity requirements and allow for space to be added to your facility for a limited upfront investment and faster than conventional construction methods.
The biological protection level of a Module can be fully customized based on operational requirements. A Module can be built to operate under negative or positive air pressure, depending on intended use (vaccine production, contaminated animal housing, or transgenic animal breeding vs. conventional and clean animal housing).
Based on space allocation and intended use, our facility design and engineering team can customize a Module to meet your facility’s specific needs. These modular structures can be fully operational within 14 to 16 weeks after ordering and can be used alone or in connection with each other or an existing building.
In compliance with the latest regulatory requirements, our module concept allows new workspace to be added to your facility for a limited investment. We offer the option of upfront purchasing or leasing arrangements, depending on your specific needs and budget.
