Save yourself some headaches and costs, do it right the first time!

Cannabis MEP and Fire Protection (CB MEP) provides services in 40 different states for cannabis-related facilities, starting with Grow/cultivation facilities, processing, and extraction labs as well as distribution and dispensary facilities. We offer diverse project experience in a wide range of services including:

• Mechanical Engineering Design

• Electrical Engineering Design

• Plumbing Engineering Design

• Fire Protection Design

• Lighting Engineering Design

• Plan and Profiles

• Life Safety and A.D.A Design

• Building Inspections and Due Diligence Reports

• Engineering Feasibility Studies

Our Difference

Our approach to engineering design creates a successful and cost-effective project. Because laboratories house sensitive samples, products and equipment, we know that they may require innovative solution for heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), vibration and electrostatic discharge control, environmental controls, electrical systems and more.

Our experience includes:

• Extraction laboratories across the US

• Cultivation, processing, manufacturing and operations for the cannabis industry

• Clean rooms to ensure an environment free of dust and impurities for research or highly sensitive electronic components.

• HVAC systems to regulate the Lab environment by providing close tolerance temperature, humidity control, clean air and adequate ventilation.

• Vibration control and equipment isolation to ensure accurate readings and measurements of Lab equipment. Solutions may include structural modifications, such as independent structural systems.

• Electrostatic discharge control to protect human health while ensuring the accuracy of your sensitive Lab equipment and instruments. An electrostatic spark in many Lab environments is a fire hazard that may endanger workers or samples.

• Uninterrupted power supply systems to protect analytical and test equipment, and virtually eliminate the loss of computer data in case of a complete power failure.

• Fume hoods that vent gases and vapors to protect your employees’ health.

• Bypass air fume hoods, such as acid hoods with integral deluxe wash systems.

• Deionized and distilled water systems and locally produced water sources, to use as a mixing agent in the laboratory process.

Locally produced systems and large scale piped systems are among our specialties.

Millions of Square Feet in Projects

We have a dedicated group to design laboratories og refineries for more than 10 years, see below.

This group is now designing cannabis growth facilities and extraction laboratories and is now Cannabis MEP (CB MEP), a division of DVO MEP and Fire Protection.
