In 1899 Charles H. Duell, the Commissioner of the US Patent Office declared that,  “Everything that can be invented has been invented.”
 
Sadly for Charles Duell, progress did not come to a grinding halt in 1899 and man kind has made some remarkable strides forward in the last 100 or so years. Currently it is generally considered that the sum total of human knowledge doubles every 2 to 3 years (some estimates will put this figure as low as 18 months, whilst others will cite 5 years). Which ever figure is correct, our knowledge of our universe continues to grow exponentially.
 
At Novalab, we like to think we are a little more open minded than Mr. Duell. We are constantly looking at options and new products, testing materials and considering new design initiatives. We want to play our part in this ever expanding knowledge base by providing the best possible laboratory environments and work spaces.
 
Or as another ex patent office clerk once put it, “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” Albert Einstein.

BioPro offers and unbeatable combination of materials for microbiology applications.

  • World leading Trespa Toplab Plus bench tops. Universally recognized as the best compact laminate laboratory bench top available.
