Our experience as a vivarium equipment supplier
Multiple members of our team possess hands-on experience managing animal facility operations and our specialists have over 75 combined years of experience working with and in vivariums. We participate regularly in local and national AALAS chapters and many of our specialists have served as AALAS chairs and board members.
In 2017, ARES completed one of the most advanced vivarium construction projects in the world. This project included rodent housing, automatic watering, fully automated cage wash, bedding delivery and removal, portable and fixed decontamination equipment and electronic cage cards. During the process, ARES helped solve numerous ongoing operational challenges for the client and managed the integration of equipment between four different manufacturing companies in a very short timeframe. The facility won the Turnkey Facility of The Year award.

How we support the vivarium industry
Helping our clients succeed is our primary concern. In addition to helping select the proper laboratory equipment for scientific applications, we support our clients with facility layout, coordination and training.
Facility Analysis
ARES specialists can schedule an in-person evaluation and take detailed measurements to verify that equipment will fit in the desired locations. For body storage applications, we consult with clients on the various types of refrigeration, transport, lift and racking systems to maximize capacities and provide the most ergonomic integrated solution.
Equipment Integration
We interface with architects, engineers, and contractors during facility design and construction to help ensure that the correct utilities are supplied for the equipment. During renovation and new construction projects, we are able to supply detailed shop drawings to assist with site preparation.
Coordination and Support
ARES recognizes that coordinating seamless delivery and installation of new equipment is critical to minimizing operational downtime and meeting inspection timelines. Our specialists interface with many local service providers and project management teams to help coordinate delivery and installation of the equipment that we sell.
Training
Our local ARES representatives offer training services for your staff on the equipment operation and use. We pride ourselves in our industry knowledge and ability to support our clients.
Product Selection
ARES specialists work closely with our customers to help select the appropriate products for their needs. If you are selecting a grossing station, we will discuss options such as sinks, disposals, ergonomic lifts, and monitor stands to ensure that the equipment is fully configured to your requirements. When building a morgue, we will review options for autopsy tables, transport systems and refrigerated storage to help guide customers through selecting an integrated, safe and ergonomic system.
