The Common Facilities (CF) of ACTREC include one reverse osmosis, three Elix-10 and six Milli-Q plants located on different floors of the Centre, for providing deionised, clean and pure water for all the experiments, and ice making machines to ensure a constant supply of ice for users. Two X-ray developing machines and a room fitted with a biohazard hood for bacterial work are also amongst the centralized CF.

In addition, a laboratory dedicated to radioactive work, which is equipped with biohazard hoods, centrifuges and radioactivity monitors, provides facilities to handle 32P and 125I. CF technicians ensure that radioactive waste is segregated and dispatched to BARC for disposal at regular intervals. They also monitor the work area for spills, thus providing a safe working environment for radioisotope users. The small dedicated team of technicians undertakes distillation of solvents and phenol for all the users of the Centre.
