We make beautiful things. Most of the things that we make are also practical. We manufacture specialised scientific glassware for an extremely varied group of enterprises; chemical, petrochemical, nutritional analysis, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, agribusiness, lighting, designers, artists, film studios, museums, research and development labs, restaurants, television shows, displays, government research labs, emissions companies, water companies, the education sector, individuals, pilot plant manufacture, specialist manufacturers, the list is almost endless. Borosilicate glass is used in just so many industries in one form or another and as we specialise in ‘specials’ it follows that we deal with all.
We also supply standard laboratory glassware (beakers, flasks, microscope slides etc.) to whoever has a need. We are not just a distributor selling widgets. We are independent professional glassblowers, free of limiting commercial tie-ups and we know what we are looking at when we examine a scientific glass vessel. We have therefore carefully chosen the products that we hold in stock so that we offer a range of items that cover a range of budgets, tastes and requirements.
We are specialist scientific glassblowers and our principle medium is 3.3 Borosilicate glass. Not only do we manufacture scientific and non-scientific glassware, we also supply a full range of branded laboratory glassware.
Furthermore, we can also supply a full range of 3.3 borosilicate tubing and rod. We not only work with glass, we also supply a truly excellent range of laboratory plastics, laboratory ceramics, filter paper, microscope slides and cover slips. We also manufacture certain wooden manometers and Blaine air permeability apparatus sets. All of our products can be badged according to specification, and even blanks provided should you so wish.
There are some products that started out as one off specials that have matured into complete product lines. For these types of products, we find ourselves as the sole worldwide producer of certain types of product.
Our advantage over other organisations is that our roots are in professional scientific glassblowing. Not just mass production work either. We specialise in specials. This means that within what is already an area of skilled manufacture, we are more skilled than the average glassblowing company. This is borne out by the type of work that we take on; other companies tell clients that the specialist item that they want is too difficult to manufacture, whilst this is precisely the sort of project that we thrive on and is our staple workload. In short, we begin where many other glassblowing companies give up. With such a background, you can be assured that what you are purchasing with regard to standard or specialised glassware is of the highest quality.
