Science Creates Incubators
United Kingdom, Bristol
Science Creates Incubators – Central Bristol’s deep tech incubator and home to the city’s most innovative science and engineering companies, chose Halton Vita Lab solutions for its laboratories. Science Creates Incubators empower scientists as entrepreneurs, providing facilities, investment, and mentoring.
“In the process of spinning out the company, we realised that there was nowhere in central Bristol for science start-ups to go. Our first facility is now full and home to over 30 businesses, which collectively raised over £28 million in the two years after opening.”
Member companies are using emerging technologies such as biotechnology and synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, photonics and electronics, drones and robotics, advanced materials, and quantum computing to create new markets and deliver solutions to big societal problems.
Science Creates Incubators at their St Philips location have over 10,000 sq ft of flexible laboratory space, specified to biosafety level 2. The building houses 24 ducted fume cupboards and is capable of housing over 100 scientists. The facility utilises specialist ventilation systems to ensure a comfortable working environment, as well as central storage and gases.
Halton’s systems are used throughout Science Creates Incubators at St Philips location and are absolutely vital to our facility’s smooth operation. Their technical team’s in-depth knowledge of the available control systems, and their individual merits in different applications, has been invaluable. It’s been over three years since installation and the aftercare service we continue to receive is above and beyond, I would not hesitate to recommend Halton’s products and systems.
