Serving the Bay Area Life Sciences Community

South San Francisco's Genentech campus and surrounding biotech cluster, the Mission Bay research district, UCSF, UC Berkeley, Stanford, and the growing biotech presence in Oakland and Emeryville represent a dense and diverse laboratory ecosystem. mLab Supply works with labs at all stages of development, from seed-stage startups in shared lab spaces to large biopharma companies managing multi-site equipment needs.

Why Bay Area Labs Choose mLab Supply

The Bay Area biotech ecosystem is defined by speed and capital intensity. Series A and B companies in South San Francisco and Mission Bay are often building out labs under tight timelines, where refurbished instruments from a verified supplier can compress lab buildout from months to weeks. For established biopharma companies managing large equipment portfolios across multiple sites, mLab Supply provides source-on-demand access to hard-to-find instruments and discontinued platforms that are no longer available through standard channels. Bay Area labs also benefit from our ability to source high-end analytical instruments — LC-MS, ultracentrifuges, flow cytometers, and liquid handling workstations — at 30–70% below new pricing, a meaningful advantage in one of the highest-cost operating environments in the country.

New, Refurbished, and Source-on-Demand

mLab Supply offers new equipment for labs with capital budgets and regulatory requirements, refurbished and pre-owned equipment for labs maximizing value, and source-on-demand sourcing for hard-to-find or discontinued instruments. All refurbished equipment is inspected, tested, and verified before shipment.
