Serlabo Technologies

What Serlabo Technologies does

Serlabo Technologies is a France-based B2B distributor and integrator of professional laboratory instrumentation, consumables, and related after-sales services, headquartered at ZAC Des Aigues Fraiches, 1914 Route d'Avignon, 84320 Entraigues-sur-la-Sorgue. Founded in 2004 as a SARL (Société à responsabilité limitée) with share capital of EUR 650,210 and registered under SIREN 481 189 173 / APE code 46.46Z (Commerce de gros de produits pharmaceutiques), the company employs 25 people, including 8 commercial engineers and 7 technical engineers, and operates exclusively with professional clients holding valid SIRET numbers. Serlabo distributes products from more than 30 international manufacturers, organized across 12 solution categories — Environment, Consumables, Pumps, Universal Equipment, Microfluidics, Automation, Spectrophotometry, Pharmaceutical, Life Sciences, Chemistry Synthesis, Chromatography — and claims an installed base of over 2,325 product references serving 1,500+ companies throughout France, with chromatography and separation sciences flagged as the primary vertical.

The business model blends one-time wholesale of capital equipment and consumables with recurring after-sales revenue from installation, calibration, training, and service. Distribution occurs through a direct enterprise field sales motion led by the technical/commercial engineering team and through a Magento 2 B2B e-commerce platform (serlabo.fr) requiring professional account verification, with a EUR 100 HT minimum order, complimentary shipping on orders ≥EUR 400 HT in metropolitan France, and net-30 payment terms. Pricing is unit-based, ranging from low-priced consumables such as collagenase enzymes (~EUR 87–256) through mid-range Kjeldahl digestion blocks (DKL 8 at EUR 6,825; DKL 20 at EUR 9,045) to higher-priced distillation units (UDK 149 at EUR 10,495). Core customer segments are environmental testing laboratories, pharmaceutical QC, life sciences research, and chemical synthesis laboratories, with ISO 9001:2015 serving as the principal quality credential.

The company does not develop proprietary laboratory instruments, software, or AI/ML capabilities; its differentiation rests on partner-brand curation, in-house application engineering, and French-language after-sales service for the third-party equipment and consumables it distributes. Key brand relationships include VELP Scientifica (elemental analyzers and Kjeldahl systems), Milestone (ETHOS X microwave digestion), Opentrons (FLEX automated pipetting robots), Unchained Labs / Dolomite Microfluidics (precision microfluidics and LNP generation), Worthington Biochemical (enzymes and biochemicals), AGI Glassplant (laboratory glassware), and ThalesNano (flow chemistry consumables). No external funding, M&A, leadership change, or international expansion has been disclosed; the company maintains a single domestic headquarters, an active social presence on LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter/X, and Facebook, and downloads-based content marketing through brand brochures and news updates.
