VICO SCIENCE & ALWSCI – Quality Lab Supplies for Vietnam

A Global Leader in Laboratory Consumables

ALWSCI (Zhejiang ALWSCI Technologies Co., Ltd.) is a world-renowned manufacturer of laboratory consumables and equipment, known for its high-quality products. Founded in 2007, ALWSCI has grown into a global supplier serving a wide range of industries – including pharmaceuticals, life sciences, chemistry, food processing, and environmental testing – with an extensive portfolio of over 3,000 products. From chromatography vials and closures to filtration devices, ALWSCI’s catalog covers virtually all essential lab consumables. The company’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and rigorous quality controls (certified to ISO 9001:2015 standards) ensure that each product meets stringent international benchmarks for performance and reliability.

Strategic Partnership: Global Quality Meets Local Service

In a strategic move to expand its global reach and better serve the Vietnamese market, ALWSCI has partnered with VICO SCIENCE as its official strategic distributor and OEM/EDM partner in Vietnam. Under this partnership, ALWSCI will manufacture laboratory consumables under the VICO SCIENCE brand, adhering to ALWSCI’s international quality standards and designs, while VICO SCIENCE provides local marketing, distribution, and customer support. This OEM agreement effectively combines the best of both worlds – ALWSCI’s world-class manufacturing and quality control with VICO SCIENCE’s on-the-ground expertise and service in Vietnam. As a result, Vietnamese laboratories can now access international-grade lab products with local convenience and support, knowing the items are produced to the same stringent specifications as ALWSCI’s global products. The partnership also signifies ALWSCI’s confidence in VICO SCIENCE’s capabilities, as VICO SCIENCE has been recognized for providing “international quality with local support” – a combination that ensures Vietnamese customers receive world-class products along with prompt, personalized service.

Through the ALWSCI – VICO SCIENCE partnership, a comprehensive range of laboratory products is now available to customers in Vietnam. These products cover critical needs in analytical laboratories and are designed to improve efficiency, accuracy, and reliability in scientific workflows.”

Comprehensive Product Portfolio for Vietnam

Chromatography Vials, Caps, and Septa

Chromatography Autosampler Vials, Septa & Closures

Chromatography vials (for HPLC, GC, and other analytical instruments) are a cornerstone of ALWSCI’s product line. The partnership brings a full selection of autosampler vials in various volumes (from 1.5 mL standard vials up to larger volumes) and formats (screw top, crimp top, snap top) to the Vietnamese market. Each vial is made from high-purity Type 1 borosilicate glass, ensuring excellent chemical compatibility and thermal stability for even the most sensitive analyses. Paired with these vials are precision-manufactured caps and septa: VICO SCIENCE offers caps with PTFE/Silicone septa that provide an airtight seal and resist chemical degradation, preserving sample integrity during storage and analysis. These vials and closures are produced under strict quality control for dimensional accuracy and cleanliness – critical for preventing contamination and ensuring accurate results. VICO-branded vials and caps guarantee reliable performance (no leaks, compatible with major instrument brands) and consistency batch-to-batch, giving researchers confidence in their sample containers. Additionally, a variety of packaging options (e.g. convenience packs, kits) are available to suit laboratories of different sizes.

Syringe Filters – Fast, Reliable Sample Filtration

Syringe Filter For Lab Filtration

High-quality syringe filters are essential for sample preparation in chromatography and microbiology labs, and the VICO SCIENCE product line now includes ALWSCI’s renowned filters. These syringe filters are available in common diameters (13 mm, 25 mm, 33 mm) and pore sizes (0.22 µm, 0.45 µm, etc.), with a range of membrane materials such as Nylon, PTFE, PVDF, PES, and cellulose acetate to accommodate different sample types. Each filter is manufactured with a uniform membrane and durable polypropylene housing, ensuring consistent filtration without fiber shedding or leaking. Whether used for clarifying HPLC samples, sterilizing solutions, or removing particulates, the filters deliver high flow rates and retention efficiency, protecting analytical instruments and improving data quality. Every VICO SCIENCE syringe filter meets global standards for performance and sterility. The partnership ensures that Vietnamese labs have ready access to a full selection of syringe filters (including sterile options for cell culture or pharmaceutical use) at a reasonable price point – making it easier to maintain sample integrity and instrument longevity without inflating the budget.

Membrane Filters – Precision Filtration Media

For applications requiring standalone membrane discs or filter papers (for example, microbiological tests, environmental monitoring, or solvent filtration), VICO SCIENCE also offers membrane filters produced by ALWSCI. These come in various diameters and are made from premium membrane materials such as cellulose acetate, mixed cellulose ester (MCE), PTFE, and nylon, each chosen for optimal performance in its intended application (e.g. MCE for microbiology or PTFE for chemical resistance). ALWSCI’s advanced manufacturing yields membranes with precise pore size distribution and high integrity, meaning researchers can trust these filters for reliable retention of microorganisms or fine particles. The membranes are available in different pore sizes (commonly 0.45 µm, 0.22 µm, etc.) and can be used with vacuum filter units, filtration funnels, or inline devices as needed. By having ALWSCI produce these critical consumables, VICO SCIENCE ensures that even specialized filtration needs are met locally. Laboratories in Vietnam no longer need to import expensive membrane filters from abroad – they can obtain globally benchmarked filters at a fair price and with much faster delivery. This not only cuts down waiting time but also reduces the risk of supply chain disruptions for important laboratory supplies.
