Serviced lab space in Melbourne — filling a need in STEM

For any scientists who are looking for a facility that caters to startups, scale-ups and mature science enterprises, with code-compliant PC2-capable and cleanroom spaces, plus great support, such a space is normally not easy and sometimes impossible to find.

Such spaces are a key ingredient to success for any entity in the STEM sector to advance research, clinical trials, pre-market and production phases and beyond. The issue with finding such space is to get the right lab or cleanroom space for the process, at a time when many institutions are pushed for space for educating the next generation of budding scientists.

However, the tide has started to turn in 2022 for clients who have joined a new facility provided by Yild Technical Spaces (Yild) in Melbourne, adding to the success of the Yild Sydney location, which has been operating since 2019.

Yild provides customised laboratory space for almost any scientific, clinical or commercial use — a proven success since 2019 in Sydney and now available in Melbourne within a few minutes of the CBD. The company is delivering modern PC2 labs and ISO-grade cleanrooms in a fully serviced model, including customised features such as fume cupboards; biosafety cabinets; specialty lab gases; lab waste solutions; and DG storage.

Each facility is designed as a collaborative, multi-tenant environment, combining dedicated and secure client-specific technical spaces with collaborative common areas such as hot desks, meeting rooms, kitchen, break-out areas, reception and goods in–out.

Client Eldin Rostom, founder and MD of Diagnose Medical and a client of Yild Melbourne, said, “Yild provided PC2-compliant infrastructure which allows our scientists to work in a safe environment.

“We will be expanding to a team of 15–20 over the next 18 months and will be looking for additional lab space with Yild and potentially conducting small batch manufacturing in clean rooms (all which can be provided via Yild).”
