Who we are
Support innovation in science and technology
We strive to support science and technology with high-quality laboratory equipment and services that make a difference in our customers’ daily work and empower them in their pursuit of innovation.
In the year
2001...
When Jan and I founded Benelux Scientific, we had a simple but bold dream: to sell one of our measuring devices in every laboratory we drove past. We set out with a plan and what we believed was an ambitious target — €10 million in sales.
Twenty-five years later, we have proven that if you can dream it, you can achieve it. Our success is the result of that original dream, of ideas and vision, of believing in ourselves, and of hard work — combined with the determination to keep going, even when the road was far from smooth.
Our
vision
Our goal is to establish ourselves as the preferred supplier of high-quality lab instruments, consumables, and services that truly improve users’ daily professional lives.
Our companies’ combined strength and complementarity make us a dependable and appreciated partner for our suppliers. These partnerships, in turn, lead to improved solutions for our customers.
Our
mission
At Aptco Group, we are driven by our commitment to providing the best support to our customers and suppliers.
We strive to support science and technology with high-quality laboratory equipment and services that make a difference in our customers’ daily work and empower them in their pursuit of innovation.
Our
values
Our entrepreneurship, long-term growth and caring for each other approach among others shapes the way we collaborate with our customers, suppliers, partners – and each other.
