Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What laboratory and analytical equipment do you auction?
We auction HPLC systems, mass spectrometers, gas chromatographs, electron microscopes (SEM and TEM), centrifuges, biosafety cabinets, freeze dryers, PCR equipment, analytical balances, spectrophotometers, and complete laboratory contents. We handle university, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and industrial lab closures.
Who are the buyers for used laboratory equipment?
Buyers include university and college research departments, contract research organizations (CROs), pharmaceutical and biotech companies expanding capacity, clinical labs, government research facilities, and secondary market lab equipment dealers. International buyers from academic and pharmaceutical sectors also participate actively.
How do you handle calibration records and service documentation for lab equipment?
We gather available calibration records, service logs, and OEM specifications during cataloging and include this documentation in auction listings. Properly documented analytical equipment, particularly HPLC and mass spec systems, commands a meaningful premium from buyers who need compliance traceability.
Can you liquidate a complete research laboratory or biotech facility?
Yes, we manage complete lab liquidations including analytical instruments, biological safety equipment, cold storage, consumable inventory, and furniture. A single coordinated sale concentrates buyer attention and simplifies the decommissioning process for the facility owner or landlord.
Do you handle biosafety and controlled-environment equipment decommissioning?
We coordinate with specialized contractors for biosafety cabinet decommissioning and certification, cryogenic system decommissioning, and any equipment requiring regulatory clearance prior to sale. We advise clients on these requirements at engagement so there are no surprises.
What is the buyer market for used high-end analytical instruments?
Very strong: mass spectrometers, electron microscopes, and NMR systems in particular attract global interest. Research institutions and pharmaceutical companies in Asia, Europe, and Latin America are active bidders for premium analytical instruments from North American lab closures.
