trabajo para facultad
La Planta del laboratorio se encuentra en Rosario; cuenta con las más modernas instalaciones y personal muy capacitado
Habia hecho la traducción con la palabra Facility cuando aparecia Plant. Pero instalaciones también lo traduje como facilities, por lo tanto en este momento tengo la duda de cómo traducir Planta.... Plant me suena a traducción, Floor no me parece lo correcto, Premises may be=???
gracias

installation
One option is to use "The laboratory installation is located in Rosario; it has modern facilities ...." (to avoid the repetition of the word facility/facilities).
facility
noun
1. a place, amenity, or piece of equipment provided for a particular purpose.
"cooking facilities"
synonyms: provision, space, means, solution, potential, prerequisite, equipment
"many shopping centres include car-parking facilities"
amenity, resource, service, advantage, convenience, benefit
"there is a wealth of local facilities"
establishment, centre, installation, place, depot, station, location, premises, site, post, base, camp; informal joint, outfit, set-up
"a medical facility deep in the jungle"
Other synonyms such as "laboratory site"/"premises" don't sound quite right, IMO.

Site
Interpreto que por 'laboratorio' se entiende el elaborador de productos medicinales, como es muy común denominarlo en Argentina. Por eso sugiero 'Site' para tu traducción.
