必威平台官网首页Labconco Supports Science Around the Globe by Donating Lab Equipment
For release: February 14, 2018
必威精装版维护时间KANSAS CITY, Missouri - Labconco Corporation supports global science initiatives with continued donations of laboratory equipment to nonprofit Seeding Labs
必威平台官网首页At Labconco, we believe in people—the power of our people to make a difference, and the power of each piece of equipment we manufacture to enable the important work of researchers and students in laboratories in the U.S.and around the world.We're glad to check both of those boxes in our partnership with Seeding Labs.
Seeding Labs is a nonprofit that delivers gently used hot plates, biosafety cabinets, centrifuges and other equipment to laboratories around the globe that would otherwise not have access to such resources.These deliveries—along with logistical support and training—are part of Seeding Labs' Instrumental Access program.

必威平台官网首页Adam Keithley, Director of Channel Management and the organizer of our internal donations, echoes Pat's enthusiasm for Labconco's involvement with the nonprofit.
"We were moved by their mission to provide instruments and equipment to those who might not be able to afford it," Keithley says."We knew that, at times, we had equipment on the shelf in gently used condition, whether it was back from the trade show circuit or some other location.We knew we could make a difference globally and have been thrilled to be part of the Seeding Labs mission.We want to help enhance global scientific discovery, and this is another way we can accomplish that goal."
This is Only the Beginning
