EnglishHow the Voigt Global Distribution Inc Online Store Is Organized for Finding Products
Updated
The voigtglobal.com store is organized around two parallel navigation paths: product category and brand. If you already know the item type you need — sterile vials, vial seals, filters, microbiology media — start from the category menus; if you need a specific manufacturer's line (Pall, BD BBL, Difco, Whatman, Cytiva, West), start from the brand groupings. A search box, cart, and sign-in are available in the header, and the homepage surfaces Best Sellers for quick entry.
Category navigation: what sits where
The category structure is deep and specific, which helps once you know the terminology but can slow you down if you don't. The main groupings visible in the store menu are:
| Category group | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Serum vial packaging | Amber and clear serum vials, sterile vials (sealed and open), ISO sterile nested vials, plastic serum vials and bottles |
| Vial seals | Center tear, hole punched, tear off, flip up tear down, long skirt flip cap, sterile flip cap, glossy USA flip cap, seals with septa |
| Vial stoppers | 13mm, 20mm, 30mm serum vial stoppers, 32mm infusion vial stoppers, lyophilization stoppers, sterile and ready-to-sterilize stoppers |
| Vial accessories | Vial crimpers, vial boxes, washed vials and stoppers |
| Filters | Millipore, Nalgene bottle and syringe filters, Pall (Acro 50 vent, Acrodisc, AcroPak, Biodyne, Biotrace, Kleenpak, Supor, Pallflex Emfab, Tissuquartz), Whatman (including Polycap capsule filters), Cytiva, sterilization grade filters |
| Microbiology | BD BBL agar plates, bottled media, ChromAgar plates, Sensi-Discs, GasPak systems, MGIT products, Difco antigens, antisera, and culture media |
| Lab equipment and supplies | Cryogenic vials and boxes, glass centrifuge tubes, lab glassware kits, medical supplies (3M Healthcare, Covidien, Kendall, Helix, Sekisui, Welch Allyn, BD centrifuge) |
Two practical notes on this structure. First, vial components are split by dimension (13mm, 20mm, 30mm, 32mm) and by seal style, so matching a stopper to a seal to a vial means checking the size in each submenu rather than assuming one listing covers the set. Second, the filter section mixes supplier-branded subcategories with filter format names — a Pall Acrodisc and a Nalgene syringe filter sit in different branches even though they serve similar purposes.
Brand navigation: when you know the manufacturer
Brand-led browsing is the faster route for repeat buyers. The store groups products under manufacturer names including Pall, BD BBL, Difco, Whatman, Cytiva, West, Nalgene, Millipore, Thermo Scientific, Voss Technologies, ALK Abello, 3M Healthcare, Beckman Coulter, Covidien, Kendall, Helix, Sekisui, Osom, and Welch Allyn. Within a brand, listings are further split by product line — Pall alone spans vent filters, syringe filters, capsule filters, membrane filters, filter funnels, filter holders, and catalog pages.
If you are sourcing a validated component for a regulated process, brand-first navigation is usually the right choice, because substituting across brands in filters or vial seals can change performance characteristics. If you are assembling a general lab order, category-first browsing will surface comparable options faster.
Best Sellers, On Sale, and the header tools
The homepage includes a Best Sellers section, with current examples being 6mL (5mL shorty) amber sterile open vials, 22x40mm, depyrogenated, and ISO 6R amber sterile open vials in a nested tray of 96 pieces. These entries are useful as a starting point for common vial formats, but treat them as a popularity signal rather than a recommendation for your specific fill volume or closure system.
An On Sale entry exists within the filter categories (for example, Pall Filters On Sale). Sale placement tells you nothing about suitability — verify the specification and sterility status before ordering on price alone.
The header carries a search field, a cart counter, and a sign-in link. The search box is the quickest way to jump to a known part number or a specific size designation such as "20mm flip off." The site also lists Worldwide Distribution & Customs Clearance Services as a service heading, which is relevant if you are shipping outside the store's home market; confirm the terms for your destination before checkout rather than assuming standard international terms.
A workable lookup sequence
- Identify whether your need is defined by brand (a specified Pall filter, a West seal) or by format (any 20mm serum stopper).
- If brand-defined, open the brand group and then the product line; if format-defined, open the category and then the size submenu.
- Use search for exact dimensions or part numbers when the menu depth makes clicking slow.
- Check the Best Sellers section only as a cross-check for commonly stocked formats, not as a substitute for specification review.
- Confirm sterility status (sterile, ready to sterilize, washed, depyrogenated) in the listing before adding to cart — these are separate subcategories, not options on one page.
The main friction point is terminology: the store assumes familiarity with vial closure vocabulary (center tear vs. flip off, open vs. sealed sterile vials, nested trays). If a term is unfamiliar, the subcategory names themselves are the fastest glossary — comparing two adjacent subcategories usually clarifies the distinction.
