Labcon began operating from a new 40,000 square foot (3,718) square meter warehouse and distribution center.

This location is about 1,500 feet from the Labcon main production facility at 3700 Lakeville Highway.

Our Products are Made with Solar Power.In 2010 our commitment to sustainability led us to make one of the biggest investments in company history. We financed and installed an 800kw rooftop solar array that went live in June 2011.
That system now produces almost one third of the power consumed by Labcon. Today, you can see Labcon products carry the "Made with Solar Power™" trademark. This use of Solar power helps us to reduce our overall carbon footprint.
Labcon Products Date Coded with Expiration DatesUnlike what you might think, plastics do age. And over time they become less pliable. So old pipet tips will no longer fit your pipettors in the same way they did when they were freshly made. And tubes may not close as well, or start to leak.
Many suppliers hide the manufacturing date on their products or don't have one at all, or even will tell you that plastic never changes. But just like everything plastic resins age and do not perform as well after two or three years.
Labcon date and lot codes all of our disposable products. Even our non sterile items. So you can be sure the products you get will perform well on your equipment.
Located in the San Francisco bay area, we employ a diverse, educated, and experienced staff. Our primary operations are centered in a 12,000 square meter facility in Petaluma, California, U.S.A
