As an experienced lab glassware manufacturer, we provide a broad selection of precision-crafted glass components and apparatus.

• Round bottom flasks: Our round bottom flasks are available in various sizes and specifications, these are critical components for chemical reactions, heating, and distillation processes.
• Condensers: Used to cool hot vapors into liquid, our condensers—such as reflux condensers and short path distillation condensers—are essential for efficient and safe laboratory work.
• Adapters: We supply various adapters to connect different pieces of apparatus, featuring standard tapered neck sizes (e.g., 24/40, 34/45), which refer to the standard tapered joint sizes of the glassware.
• Cold traps: Our glass cold traps are essential for vacuum line protection by condensing volatile vapors before they reach the pump.
• Boiling flasks: Designed to safely heat liquids, often utilized in distillation and reflux setups.
• Chromatography columns: Precision-manufactured for separation processes, including specialized jacketed columns which have an outer layer for temperature control.
• Receiving flasks: Used to collect distilled liquids in a process like short path distillation.

We are one of the top scientific glass equipment manufacturer and glassware fabricators in the UK. We excel in providing custom solutions, overcoming the challenge of finding a supplier for unique, specialized glassware.
