Dabur Innovation Center
The Challenge
The core challenge was creating a sterile, laboratory-grade environment that still felt warm, natural, and aligned with Dabur's focus on Ayurvedic roots. Balancing strict clinical cleanliness standards (Class 10,000) with luxury materials like natural stone and warm wood finishes required meticulous material engineering.
The Solution
We utilized natural stone finishes treated with clinical-grade antibacterial coatings, paired with a layered lighting system that mimics natural sun cycles to reduce researcher fatigue. The laboratories were designed with seamless epoxy flooring and integrated chemical-resistant workstation systems that maintain the overall architectural language of the corporate wing.
Impact: The center established a gold-standard for pharmaceutical R&D environments in India, resulting in a measurable increase in research team morale and precision during long-cycle innovation labs.
