Dr. Sirkka Scheeff, Product Manager Consumables at Eppendorf, said, “As a consumables manufacturer we provide a high level of transparency into the production process. It clearly shows how we understand every stage, taking the utmost care in ensuring that only the highest quality products are manufactured.
As a result of our stringent quality control procedures, our consumables are reliable and robust, reducing the risk of experiment failure, scrappage and lost time”.

Eppendorf’s knowledge and decades of experience are apparent through every step of the process, from selecting the highest quality raw materials to testing the final product. A prime example is shown in scenes of the complex fully automated production process undertaken in Class 6 cleanroom conditions and the continuous strict internal and external procedures that ensure absolute precision product quality.
