In this new era where safety, efficiency, and sustainability define excellence in scientific environments, Erlab, the inventor of ductless filtration technology, continues to solidify its pioneering position in laboratory design and safety through visionary leadership and proactive industry engagement.

Leadership Driving Industry Progress
Cedric Herry, whose multifaceted roles as Vice-President Innovation of Erlab Group, Chairman of ISO/TC 336, Vice-Chairman of Fabrilabo, and Chairman of UMN 61 position him as a linchpin in advancing global standardization efforts. Herry’s expertise in harmonizing technical innovation with regulatory frameworks ensures Erlab remains a trusted authority in shaping laboratory design standards. His leadership underscores the company’s commitment to fostering informed, impactful practices across the sector.
Pioneering Standardization with ISO
Erlab has deepened its involvement in global standardization by joining forces with the ISO Technical Committee on Laboratory Design. This collaboration highlights Erlab’s dedication to elevating industry benchmarks, ensuring its solutions align with—and often exceed—evolving international requirements. By contributing to ISO’s standardization processes, Erlab not only refines its own product direction but also helps steer the broader industry toward safer, more efficient laboratory environments.

Adapting to a New Era of Sustainability
As environmental and societal considerations reshape laboratory priorities, Erlab is embracing a holistic approach to lab standardization. The company now integrates lifecycle assessments, energy efficiency, and ergonomic design into its frameworks, addressing the dual imperatives of functionality and responsibility. This shift reflects Erlab’s agility in responding to global trends, positioning laboratories to meet future challenges without compromising operational excellence.

Collaboration Fuels Standardization and Sustainable Lab Futures
Erlab’s partnership with UNM Normalisation showcases how joint expertise spurs progress. By merging UNM’s standardization know-how with Erlab’s technical capabilities, they’re co-developing a flexible Lab Design standard. This will help labs globally implement best practices in safety, sustainability, and workflow. Erlab’s contributions to standardization align with its broader goal of creating sustainable and advanced laboratories. Led by Cedric Herry and backed by strategic alliances, Erlab is set to shape the industry’s future. As global standards change, Erlab’s dual role as a contributor and innovator will ensure labs worldwide operate more intelligently, safely, and in line with societal needs.
