Outsmarting pathogens: Germfree's decades-proven laboratories and equipment strengthen disease monitoring & biosecurity
Disease monitoring work runs through BSL-2, 3, and 4 containment requirements that exist for one reason: keeping personnel and the public safe while pathogens are being studied. As a result, Germfree designs and deploys facilities built to meet those standards from the outset. The infrastructure we provide gives researchers and public health agencies what they need to monitor, contain, and respond to infectious disease outbreaks as they emerge.

Frequently Asked Questions
What containment requirements apply to disease monitoring laboratories?
Disease monitoring laboratories must meet stringent BSL-2, 3, and 4 level containment requirements to ensure the safety of personnel and the public.
Does Germfree offer mobile laboratories for disease surveillance?
Yes — for example, Mobile Biocontainment Laboratories are rapidly deployable, BSL-2 or BSL-3 compliant units built for seamless transport, available in three off-site built platforms: a 450 sq. ft. semi-trailer, a 24′ sprinter van, and a 24′ cargo trailer.
Are modular biocontainment laboratories available for disease monitoring?
Yes. Biocontainment Modular Laboratories are rapidly deployable, BSL-2, 3, or 4 compliant labs built for outbreak response and on-site diagnostics, available as freestanding facilities or integrated with existing laboratories.
What regulatory standards do Germfree’s biocontainment laboratories comply with?
Facilities are compliant by design to CDC-NIH BMBL, WHO, CA, EU, GB, AU/NZ, and SG standards.
What equipment does Germfree offer for biosafety needs?
Germfree offers standard and custom Class 2 and Class 3 biosafety cabinets, containment isolators, PCR workstations, material pass-throughs, and glovebox isolators, crafted from 100% stainless steel.
What biocontainment levels can Germfree’s laboratories support?
In fact, Germfree’s modular laboratories have been in use for decades worldwide, performing at biocontainment levels BSL-2, BSL-3, and up to BSL-4.
