The pop-up facility will be built in the Concourse B of the airport post-security in the Brookstone location, which is now closed.
The facility is expected to have six separate testing rooms with the capacity to administer more than 400 tests each day. The facility will offer both Covid-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and rapid molecular testing.
XpresSpa CEO Doug Satzman said: “As cases continue to rise in Colorado and throughout the country, we are pleased to launch XpresCheck at Denver International Airport, which will be our first pop-up location and fifth Covid-19 testing facility across the country.
“This new pop-up building methodology will enable us to accelerate our rollout to additional airports at a lower cost than our original modular constructed facilities at JFK, Newark, and Logan airports.
