About MIDSCI

Our Building

 

MIDSCI was founded in 1983 by my father, Larry Degenhart. He started Midwest Scientific (since changed to MIDSCI) out of the basement of our home… by himself. He was off to the races with his original intention to be a manufacturer’s representative for scientific equipment. But, as the tides changed and new opportunities arrived, he quickly changed the plan and became a distributor of scientific equipment and supplies. He found a new office space that would allow him to warehouse the products and meet the needs of his customers.

We are now in our 5th location and are celebrating our 40th year of business in 2023! 

We moved in April, 2022 to double our space at our new location just outside of St. Louis, Missouri. Currently employing over 60 employees, we sell to every state in the United States and many countries around the world. We have Laboratory Consultants in many states, especially up and down the center corridor of the U.S.

 

 

For those without representation, we have an inside team of consultants waiting to take care of you!

We sell many unique brands and products for scientific research, Molecular Biology, Cell and Tissue Culture, PCR, Liquid Handling, Centrifugation, Refrigeration, benchtop equipment and numerous others.

 

If you are already a MIDSCI customer, thank you for your trust and loyalty.

If you are not yet part of our family, give us a chance and let us show you what we can do.

Our approach is one of consultative sales and support.

  • We understand your needs and goals.
  • We will always provide value in what you are looking for, whether it is an interesting new technology for the lab or new products to increase efficiency in the lab.

 

Our success has come, by treating our customers and employees with the highest regard. When a company can take care of their team, they will, in turn, take care of their customers the same way. Our customers are our lifeline, and we will do our very best to bring only quality products to our scientists. In doing so, we will answer our phones with real people who have real answers for you.

  • We ship stocked products in 24 hours.
  • We have exclusive agreements with vendors from all over the world.
  • We will get back to you in 24 hours.
  • We will do all the little things that many have forgotten.

 

At MIDSCI, we have created our own culture, and we only ask three things of our employees; work hard, have fun and take care of each other.

We aren’t your average scientific company, and we like what we can do for you!

 

Thank You!
