What is a FabLab?
A FabLab (fabrication laboratory) is a small-scale workshop offering (personal) fabrication to anyone.

FabLabs encourage sharing information and ideas. Flexible manufacturing equipment in our FabLab includes:

Unfortunately, due to financial challenges, the decision has been taken by the Coventry University senior leadership to close FabLab Coventry. This decision was made with sadness and regret.
Our personal achievements over the past eight amazing years have been phenomenal, directly supporting over 14,000 local citizens to learn new skills, gain qualifications, build confidence, make innovative products and build connections. The relationships we have been able to make and the people we have been able to support have made each day exciting, never knowing what mad project idea is next to hit the table.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone of you for making the last eight years of operation so much fun and we apologise for this sad conclusion. FabLab will be open this week until Wednesday 27th and then will be on an appointment basis only for the next couple of weeks whilst we wind down.
