Our Facilities

Cefas’ state-of-the-art laboratory and aquaria facilities in Weymouth are designed to enable the delivery of our statutory and research programmes. Our world class science is facilitated by the latest laboratory equipment, extensive, biosecure aquatic facilities and advanced information technology support. Science quality is assured through accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 for many of our laboratory test methods.

Regular capital investment supported by UK government ensures that Cefas’ facilities stay at the cutting edge of marine and freshwater science and technology.

Cefas complies with the relevant guidance and regulations including those of the Research Council of United Kingdom, The Joint Code of Practice for Research, and the Concordat to Support Research Integrity.
