The International Institute for Sustainable Laboratories (I2SL) is devoted to the principles of sustainable laboratories—from design to engineering to practice. Through worldwide partnerships and the exchange of technical information, I2SL will help produce high-technology facilities that address the rapid pace of science, medicine, research, and development in an ever-changing and dynamic world.
As official co-sponsor of the Laboratories for the 21st Century (Labs21) Annual Conference and workshops, I2SL will facilitate a network of technical capabilities to address global needs in the following areas while incorporating the Labs21 Approach to sustainable, high-technology, and low-energy laboratories. These capabilities include:

I2SL, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation, was established in 2004 by Phil Wirdzek, Kath Williams, and Beth Shearer, three leaders in the world of sustainable laboratories. In 2007, the I2SL Board grew to include:
Though co-sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and I2SL, the Labs21 Annual
Conference and Workshops are not funded by either Federal agency. Per
the co-sponsorship agreement with EPA, I2SL is not permitted
to submit a claim for compensation to either agency. As a result, I2SL
must collect the necessary funding through Conference and Workshop registration
fees, Technology and Services Fair exhibitor fees, and Conference sponsorships.
I2SL appreciates your support through these avenues, as your
financial contributions help to grow and improve the Labs21 Annual Conference
and Workshops. I2SL is committed to maintaining the integrity
of these events and through your support will continue to offer the Labs21
Workshops and Annual Conference as the premier forums for information
exchange on laboratory sustainability in the world.
I2SL encourages all organizations, industries, and governments related to high-technology facilities to join the group in enriching its mission and outreach to others. Opportunities are available for the promotion and partnership of Labs21. Consider getting involved with the Labs21 Annual Conference by sponsoring a special event during the conference. I2SL also offers other opportunities for you to get involved.
