GE Healthcare Systems is a leading global medical technology and life sciences company. Avid Engineers worked with GE on several Biosafety Level 2 projects over multiple projects and locations. Biosafety Level 2 or BSL-2 laboratory spaces are used to study moderate-risk infectious agents or toxins.

BSL-2 design requirements include hand washing sinks, eye washing stations, and doors that close and lock automatically. BSL-2 laboratories must also have access to equipment that can decontaminate laboratory waste, including an incinerator, an autoclave, or another method of decontamination. Avid’s design was created to include or accommodate all of those requirements, as well as multiple infrastructure upgrades related to lab support utilities.
