SGL Helping Laboratories Cut Costs 


How can SGL help your lab?

SGL is helping many customers reduce their laboratory costs without compromising on quality by supplying our pre-poured culture media solutions.

All businesses are under pressure with rising energy prices and higher consumable, raw material, and overhead costs.  Is it time to get a comparison quote from SGL and see what saving you can make?

  • The cost of preparing media in-house has increased considerably as it is both energy and labour-intensive. Compare buying in our fully QC-tested pre-poured media with your in-house manufacturing cost, and you will be surprised how much you can save.
  • SGL offers flexibility in a wide range of formats. Flexibility in fill volume, batch size, and long shelf life mean our product fits your process, allowing you to maximise efficiency in laboratory workflow.
  • Recycle and Reuse formats. As opposed to disposable pre-poured media formats, SGL can also offer bottled media on a recycle and reuse basis. This can save £££s by recycling expensive bottles & caps. Already adopted by many facilities, this also significantly reduces glass & plastic waste helping companies meet their carbon-neutral targets.
  • As well as pre-poured plates, SGL can supply convenient, ready-to-use bottled agars. The bottled agar is melted and poured out into Petri dishes for both spread plate and poured plate methods. Room temperature storage and a 12-month shelf life allow for efficient stock management.
  • Bespoke media solutions. Is your in-house formulation becoming difficult to manage? Volumes increasing? Components or QC difficult to manage? Is the media performance inconsistent? We can commercially manufacture your in-house formulation. Adopting your format, fill volume, packaging, or QC requirements. Providing consistently high-quality media when you need it.
