Campro Scientific

What Campro Scientific does

Campro Scientific GmbH is a privately held, family-run specialty distributor founded in 1981 and headquartered in Berlin, Germany, with a regional subsidiary in Veenendaal, Netherlands. The company distributes analytical standards, reference materials, certified reference materials (CRMs), stable and radioactive isotopes, radiopharmaceutical inputs, breath test substrates, in-vitro diagnostics, and automated sample preparation systems to research institutes, universities, registered companies, pharmaceutical firms, and clinical customers across Europe. Supply is restricted to institutional buyers - individuals are not served.

The company's portfolio is sourced from a roster of 12 named international manufacturers (Wellington Laboratories, FMS, Chiron/ZeptoMetrix, ERA Waters, CPAchem, QuinTron, Merck/ISOTEC, Huayi Isotopes, Marshall Isotopes, Strong Biotech, Analox Instruments, and FAN) for whom Campro acts as exclusive or authorized distributor in Germany, the Netherlands, and additional European territories. Campro Scientific itself holds ISO 9001:2015 certification (TÜV Rheinland), and the distributed products carry ISO 17025, 17034, 17043, and 13485 accreditations that are required for laboratory accreditation compliance. The company operates a Berlin-based demo laboratory for hands-on instrument trials, a multi-language webshop (German, English, Dutch), and a tri-lingual newsletter.

Commercially, Campro Scientific operates on a one-time purchase model with catalog and quote-based pricing (no subscription or recurring SaaS component). The Netherlands subsidiary specifically handles custom tritium and carbon-14 radiolabeling services. GTM is sales-led with channel partner distribution: direct sales through the Berlin and Veenendaal offices plus exclusive supply relationships with manufacturers. There is no disclosed headcount beyond the 11-50 band, no parent company, no outside investors, and no disclosed revenue, funding, or acquisition history.
