Gilson’s liquid handling, purification, and extraction products are available on the Labviva platform

Labviva, a leader in life sciences marketplace software that modernizes procurement practices today announced Gilson as a strategic supply partner. Gilson’s liquid handling, purification, and extraction solutions will be available through Labviva’s marketplace.

Through this partnership, organizations like large pharmaceuticals, research institutions, and biotechnology firms who use the Labviva platform to procure laboratory supplies can easily access Gilson’s portfolio, which includes the popular PIPETMAN® pipette.

The Labviva platform integrates with e-procurement applications including SAP Ariba, Oracle Procurement Cloud, JAGGAER Procure-to-Pay, and Coupa. It gives both purchasing professionals and research scientists a way to procure laboratory supplies that is similar to a B2C e-commerce experience. Suppliers like Gilson who chose to offer their products on the Labviva platform have access to purchasing trends and product performance.

"Labviva helps Gilson access new markets through their private marketplace capabilities,” said Peter Fleskes, Head of Gilson Distribution Partnerships-Americas. “It also allowed us to significantly reduce catalog onboarding time, which increases our time-to-value.”

Gilson’s pipettes, pipette tips, pipette accessories, lab systems, and benchtop devices are available through a worldwide distribution network. Using Labviva, Gilson is able to sell to additional commercial markets and increase exposure in existing accounts.

“Labviva helps connect scientists to suppliers across all categories of life sciences research,” said Siamak Baharloo, CEO and Co-Founder of Labviva. “Gilson is recognized as a leader in their space, and we are excited to have their portfolio available to our pharma and academic customers.”

Labviva was founded in 2017 by life sciences industry veterans Baharloo, Aaron Miramontes, and Nicholas Rioux. Gilson was founded in 1957 and remains family owned. Over 5000 Gilson products are available on the Labviva marketplace.

All brands are the properties of their respective owners.
