Reduce Energy Costs and Boost Clinical Efficiency Today
Thinlabs Australia is a pioneer in sustainable, low power computing systems. We specialise in Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, combining intelligent design with energy-efficient performance to create reliable, future-ready solutions for clinical environments.
Thinlabs delivers medical-grade All-in-One (AIO) computers, hot swap power systems, mini PCs and mobile workstation solutions that enhance clinical efficiency, safety, and sustainability across the Australian healthcare system.
With PoE systems proven to reduce energy consumption by up to 50-60%, Thinlabs enables hospitals, aged care facilities, and digital health providers to improve reliability and reduce costs — while advancing progress toward ESG and net-zero goals.
Supporting Healthcare Providers Across Australia
Thinlabs works with a broad spectrum of healthcare partners, including:
- Public hospitals and health services
- Aged care providers and private aged care groups
- Allied health and digital health solution providers
These collaborations ensure that Thinlabs’ solutions are integrated seamlessly into existing clinical and IT ecosystems — delivering performance and reliability that frontline healthcare workers can depend on.

Purpose-Built Technology for Clinical Environments
Thinlabs takes a fundamentally different approach from many competitors. Rather than rebranding consumer-grade devices, we design and manufacture purpose-built low power and DC powered computing systems engineered specifically for clinical use.
Our technology integrates:
- Medical grade PoE computing systems for simplified cabling and reduced energy draw
- EPICUS Battery Systems with a five-year warranty and hot-swappable design for continuous uptime
- Lean Workstations on Wheels (TLC) — lightweight, reliable, and designed for long shift operation
- Centralised charging and fleet management systems for improved asset control
- Custom low power displays and monitors for clinical settings
These systems are optimised for reliability, infection control, and endurance, ensuring clinicians have access to safe, dependable technology that supports both patient care and sustainability objectives.
Supporting ESG and Net-Zero Goals
Thinlabs helps healthcare organisations achieve their ESG and net-zero commitments through intelligent low power technology that delivers measurable energy savings.
Thinlabs’ PoE computing systems have been proven to reduce energy consumption by up to 50-60% compared to conventional AC-powered devices, without compromising performance.
By eliminating the need for multiple power supplies and enabling centralised control, these systems simplify infrastructure while significantly lowering operational energy demand.
In combination with EPICUS Battery Systems, which extend product life and reduce electronic waste, Thinlabs solutions help healthcare providers lower their carbon footprint and total cost of ownership.
This sustainable approach allows hospitals, aged care facilities, and health networks to align technology investment with environmental objectives — achieving greater efficiency, resilience, and accountability in line with evolving ESG and net-zero frameworks.
