Steriltech

What Steriltech does

Steriltech, S.L. is a privately-held Spanish company founded in 2004 and headquartered in Madrid (C/ Laguna del Marquesado 14, Nave 1, 28021) that designs, manufactures, integrates, and distributes scientific equipment and scientific installations (Instrumentación e Instalaciones Científicas). The company employs 11-50 people and operates as a hybrid manufacturer-distributor: it produces proprietary transfer air locks (SAS Biológicos, SAS de Biodescontaminación, SAS Germicidas, ventilated SAS) in AISI-304 or AISI-316 stainless steel, and it is the Spanish distribution channel for more than 15 international manufacturers including ESCO Lifesciences (biological safety cabinets, laminar flow, VIVA animal research workstations), Bioquell/Ecolab (hydrogen peroxide vapor biodescontamination), Bioneer (PCR/qPCR, protein synthesis), Avidity Science (lab water purification), TSI (AeroTrak air samplers, particle counters), Plexx (animal research products), BMT (sterilizers), Huber (thermofluid systems), Vaisala (environmental measurement), Flow Science (HPAPI containment), and Alliance Bio-Expertise (AIRWEL microbiological air samplers).

The portfolio spans Class I/II/III biological safety cabinets, ULPA-filtered animal containment workstations, remote active air samplers for Grade A/B pharmaceutical environments, automatic culture media preparators, water purification systems (Types I/II/III), steam/low-temperature/hot-air sterilizers, culture media preparators, balances, peristaltic pumps, and full cleanroom/GMP ("sala blanca") design-build services. Around the equipment, Steriltech provides recurring technical services — installation, calibration, validation, qualification, HPV decontamination, preventive maintenance, and technical consulting — delivered by its own in-house technical team. The company is certified to ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental management).

Steriltech's business model combines hardware sales (equipment distribution and in-house SAS manufacturing) with professional services (cleanroom design and construction, calibration/validation/qualification, and aftermarket maintenance). It runs a sales-led direct go-to-market with field-based engagement into Spanish laboratories, hospitals, research centers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, animal research facilities, and chemical/cosmetic/food-industry customers. Pricing is quote-based on project specifications, configuration, and scope; no public pricing exists. Revenue geometry, headcount history, and ownership structure are not publicly disclosed.
