What Is BRANDTECH Scientific?

Updated

BRANDTECH Scientific is the US and Canadian division of the Brand Group, a manufacturer of laboratory equipment. It supplies three brands — BRAND, VACUUBRAND, and VITLAB — covering liquid handling, vacuum technology, and volumetric plasticware, all manufactured in the group's German facilities. If you work in a chemistry or life science lab in the US or Canada and need pipettes, vacuum pumps, or precision plasticware from a single distributor, this is the site to check.

What BRANDTECH Scientific offers

The site organizes its catalog around three product families, each tied to a specific Brand Group brand:

Brand Product area Examples from the site
BRAND Liquid handling and life science Transferpette® pro single and multi-channel pipettes, consumables, precision glassware
VACUUBRAND Vacuum technology PC 3001 VARIO select oil-free diaphragm pump, vacuum pumps, gauges, controllers, VACUU·LAN® lab vacuum systems
VITLAB Volumetric plasticware Plastic products for volume measurement, sampling, and storage

Beyond the core catalog, the site lists general lab products and lab equipment, plus a promotions section.

Who it's for

BRANDTECH positions itself as a partner for "laboratory precision and reliability" in chemistry and life science settings. The US/Canada division structure matters if you're buying in North America: you're ordering from the regional arm of a German manufacturer, not a third-party reseller.

Resources and support available on the site

The site bundles several self-service tools alongside the shop:

  • Vacuum Pump Selection Guide — helps match a pump to your application
  • Certificates of Performance — documentation for purchased equipment
  • Service and warranty information, plus authorized repair partners
  • Product registration
  • Learning Center, documents and downloads, and a digital catalog
  • Application guides for vacuum and liquid handling use cases
  • Find my sales rep and distribution partner directories
  • News, blog, and Lab Notes newsletter

How to start using the site

  1. Identify which brand covers your need (BRAND for pipetting and consumables, VACUUBRAND for vacuum, VITLAB for plasticware).
  2. Use the relevant category page or the digital catalog to find the specific product.
  3. For vacuum applications, run your setup through the Vacuum Pump Selection Guide before choosing a model.
  4. Check the promotions page if price matters to your purchase.
  5. Use "Find My Sales Rep" if you need direct contact rather than online ordering.

The site includes an online shop, though the available material doesn't specify pricing, account requirements, or regional shipping terms — confirm those at checkout or with a sales rep.
