~ Aims to grow market share in the laboratory business by 25% by FY28 

Mumbai, 14th April, 2023(GNI): Godrej Interio, India’s leading furniture solutions brand in home and institutional segments, successfully revamped IIT Bombay’s ‘Class of 1980 Design and Making Lab’. The idea behind this revamp was to provide state-of-the-art facilities, empower research-based education and revolutionize learning practices for students. Some of the unique innovative furniture solutions like modular furniture, fume hood, lab storage, MEP services & turnkey projects form a core part of the lab’s revamping. Godrej Interio is currently executing similar projects for state medical colleges, research institutes and government institutes across India. 

The refurbished lab is an important component of the Institute’s larger #MakerSpace programme that aims to provide students with a comprehensive education through exposure to state of the art thematic labs. The lab revamp was largely adapted from the recommendations made under the updated National Education Policy, that emphasised hands-on experimental-based learning. It will give young pioneers at IIT Bombay the opportunity to study modern design and production processes at the start of their academic careers. Godrej Interio designed the space and installed specialised laboratory furniture and modular workstations at the Class of 1980 Design and Making Lab.
