LabFriend Has Officially Launched In Germany

LabFriend launched in Jan 2026, bringing a smarter, faster way for laboratories across Germany to source scientific equipment, consumables, and everyday lab essentials online. Built for modern procurement, LabFriend Germany gives research teams, universities, testing laboratories, healthcare facilities, and industrial users access to a broad online catalogue with transparent pricing, fast quote requests, and trusted scientific brands in one place.

For buyers searching for everyday essentials like pipettes, petri dishes, beakers, measuring cylinders, volumetric flasks, laboratory bottles, filter paper, and centrifuge tubes, LabFriend Germany makes it easier to compare products, explore options, and order from one convenient online destination.

 

Designed for How Laboratories Buy Today

Laboratories increasingly want a procurement experience that is quicker, simpler, and more transparent. LabFriend Germany has been launched to support exactly that, with easy access to key categories including general laboratory consumables, analytical measurement and testing, sample preparation, distillation, separation and filtration, laboratory cultivation equipment, sampling, and occupational safety and security.

This matters because most laboratories do not buy from just one category. A single order may include micropipettes, petri dishes, reagent bottles, test tubes, flasks, filters, mixers, safety products, and measuring instruments. By bringing these needs together on one platform, LabFriend Germany helps reduce purchasing friction and save valuable time.

 

Trusted Brands for Everyday Lab Purchasing

A key strength of LabFriend Germany is access to a wide range of recognised laboratory brands through one platform. The brands page features hundreds of names, including widely used brands such as BRAND, DWK Life Sciences, IKA, Eppendorf, Sartorius, JULABO, Thermo Scientific, VACUUBRAND, Heidolph, and many more.

That gives buyers a better way to source the products they use most often, whether they are looking for liquid handling, laboratory glassware, temperature control, sample preparation, filtration, or general lab consumables. Popular examples across the store include products such as the IKA MS 3 Basic shaker, IKA T 18 Mini Digital disperser, DWK DURAN laboratory bottles, Sartorius Vivaspin filters, and BRAND pipettes.

 

Why Germany Is an Important Market

Germany is a strong fit for a digital laboratory supplier. Germany Trade & Invest states that Germany is Europe's largest pharmaceutical market and the fourth largest worldwide, with pharmaceutical industry sales reaching EUR 59.8 billion in 2023. Germany Trade & Invest also reports that the country's biopharmaceutical sector generated EUR 19.2 billion in turnover in 2023. Germany also invests heavily in research more broadly: the country's Federal Statistical Office reports combined public and private spending on education, research and science reached EUR 398 billion in 2023, with companies and non-university research institutions alone accounting for EUR 107 billion of that total. Germany is also among the world's top locations for academic research, ranking second globally for university R&D spending according to OECD data compiled by the US National Science Foundation.

Alongside this, Germany's Federal Statistical Office reports that 83% of internet users in Germany shopped online in 2024, highlighting how established digital purchasing behaviour already is in the market. Germany's broader internet adoption rate is equally strong, with 94% of the German population using the internet as of 2023, according to Initiative D21. B2C e-commerce revenue in Germany reached nearly EUR 85 billion in 2023, according to Statista.

These figures support the case for a modern online supplier that helps laboratories buy faster and more efficiently.

 

A Better Online Experience for Lab Buyers

LabFriend Germany is not just a product catalogue. It is built to help laboratory buyers move from search to shortlist to quote more easily. In addition to product and category pages, the site also includes educational content in the Insights section, helping customers learn more about common laboratory products and applications before they buy.

This makes the platform useful not only for experienced procurement teams but also for scientists, technicians, educators, and first-time buyers who want clearer product information and easier navigation across the most commonly purchased laboratory items.
