Devgen is located in state of the art facilities which have been designed in such a way that they fulfill the requirements of a modern research lab, in terms of functionality, flexibility, security and safety. Devgen has approximately 6,000m² of research and office space at its disposal (or approximately 9,000m² incl. technical floor and car park). The facilities are located in the Technologiepark in Ghent (Zwijnaarde), which is one of the core biotech cluster in Belgium.

Special attention is given to a contingency and security plan. This encompasses a set of measures and policies in case of fire, burglary, power interruption (on-line UPS and emergency generator assuring the continuation of activity in case on power failure) and other risks. The building is equipped with state of the art technical ‘features’ to minimize the disaster or damage and maximize security. A Building Management System guarantees the functioning of the building in the best way possible by supervising the different services in the building 24 hours a day.
