Supporting global research for 20+ years

Driven by a desire to make research-grade culture media more accessible and affordable, we began as a small operation focused on quality and service. That ethos remains central to everything we do. Today, we operate from a purpose-built manufacturing facility and ship to customers across the world – from UK universities to researchers in Hong Kong. Still family-run and proudly independent, we combine decades of experience with the flexibility to respond to your exact requirements.
