Imagine a supplier that fully understands its customers. One that anticipates their needs and provides them with a virtual one-stop shop for all of the supplies, equipment and services required to do their jobs. That’s what Fisher Scientific does day in, day out for thousands of customers around the world. We’re in every corner of scientific-research and clinical laboratories. From the lab countertops, cabinets and fume hoods, to the high-performance liquid chromatography equipment, we’re there. From protective eyewear, masks and gloves to water-filtration systems, we’re there. From the Isotemp® refrigerators and freezers where samples are stored, to the diagnostic kits used to test for strep A or mononucleosis, we’re there – wherever scientists and clinicians work.

We have a comprehensive understanding of the laboratory supply chain from beginning to end. We should. We’ve been a leader in the business for more than 100 years. With that knowledge and experience, we go beyond a one-stop shop of products to provide a wide array of value-added services – contract manufacturing, sourcing of specialized products, customized logistics and delivery, pharmaceutical outsourcing and more. We use our expertise to reduce overall procurement costs for our customers and improve the efficiency of their supply chains.
