LIFE Foundation

LIFE Mobil Lab
The science education initiative, LIFE, has a mobile laboratory with foam solutions from Linde+Larsen and NordicFoam by Linde+Larsen.

At the end of 2020, the Novo Nordisk Foundation came with the big news, that the LIFE Foundation is being established as an independent foundation.

Who is the LIFE FOUNDATION?
LIFE stands for Learning, Ideas, Fascination and Experiments.

LIFE is a nationwide and non-profit teaching initiative within STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). The LIFE foundation is supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation.

LIFE’s mission is to strengthen knowledge and fascination for science, for children and young people in Denmark. The LIFE foundation is offering schools, science courses for free.

Mobile laboratory
The LIFE Foundation offers to visit schools with their mobile laboratory, also called the LIFE Mobile Lab. The LIFE Mobil Lab contains a state-of-the-art laboratory facility that is not normally available at the schools. With LIFE Mobil Lab, students get the right environment to be inspired, and at the same time there is plenty of opportunity to experiment and be immersed in science.

“When we had to help the LIFE Foundation to arrange drawers and cupboards in the mobile laboratory, we were completely engrossed in the fantastic setting. It has been one of the funniest and atypical projects in 2020, because there were no standard solutions, and at the same time it should be easy and practical for both the LIFE Foundation and the students. Our entire development team behind Linde+Larsen and NordicFoam worked hard on this project. Fortunately, we have a broad and long experience in custom solutions, and with our know-how and the LIFE Foundation’s good description of wishes and requirements, we delivered a particularly good result ”.

The LIFE Mobil Lab can visit schools again, when it is possible due to Covid19, and from fall 2021, the schools can also visit the LIFE Campus in Lyngby.
