Safety & Best Practice

Safety & Best Practice in the laboratory is paramount.

Always given the highest priority, it’s an integral part of our product design work and something we revisit on existing products too, so we’re always offering you the safest possible way of carrying out your chemistry.

The Laboratory Safety Institute

The Laboratory Safety Institute

We’ve partnered with this amazing non-profit educational institute who provide safety courses and consulting services for chemical laboratories worldwide.  Connor and the rest of the team at LSI are really down to earth, and really upfront about how safety in the lab has to be something that everyone wants, rather than something they feel policed on and dictated to.  They offer fantastic face-to-face training for those who are in the US, but also have a huge range of online training courses, webinars, and DVD training courses for those further afield.  These and their free intro videos will be helpful for those keen on improving safety in their own lab, and for those responsible for supporting others in their lab safety efforts.  Click through to find out more about the options available to you, and why we are so happy to have found The Laboratory Safety Institute!
