Laboratory and Research Equipment
We specialize in finding the right materials for your application and fabricating custom solutions for your unique needs. We have created polyethylene and polypropylene tanks for chemical processing, acrylic and teflon guards for pharmaceutical and scientific research, acid resistant sinks, custom storage cabinets, spill trays, mouse mazes, reject bins, and other custom fabricated devices for testing purposes. Plastic with its remarkable inert characteristics makes it one of the best materials for use in the lab.
In the Name of Science
With plastic.
Plastic with its remarkable inert characteristics makes it one of the best materials for use in the lab.
Chemicals easily eat through many materials, but they've met their match with plastics. The right plastics can ensure a safe, durable, long-lasting perforance even under the harshest conditions.

Our Solutions
Done right.
The smallest of variables can change the outcome of an experiment or testing which could unnecessarily cost time and money or possible someone's life because of a misdiagnosis. When choosing a company for your plastic requirements it's important to choose one with the experience, reliability and excellence to customer service.

We have created polyethylene and polypropylene tanks for chemical processing, acrylic and teflon guards for pharmaceutical and scientific research, acid resistant sinks, custom storage cabinets, spill trays, mouse mazes, reject bins, and other custom fabricated devices for testing purposes.
We produce durable, non-corrosive chemical handling equipment. All welding, forming, tooling and assembly is performed at our facility.
Environmental and Safety
Considering the total carbon footprint, including costs of raw materials, manufacture, transport, fabricate, install, maintain, plastics compare favorably with more traditional materials. Also, plastics are safer to handle and install. When you consider that most plastics are readily recyclable, they can become the most environmentally responsible and safest choice for many demanding chemical applications.
