New Lab Startup Supplies — 15% Off Consumables for 12 Months
LaunchLab by LabSupplies.com
Starting a new lab, relocating, or stocking up on a fresh grant? LaunchLab gives newly established laboratories 15% off lab consumables for a full year — plus member pricing on equipment & instruments, free shipping from USA inventory, and direct manufacturer support.
Engineer-Backed. Lab-Tested Brands.
Apply for LaunchLab PricingSetting up a new laboratory is one of the most demanding stretches in a research career. Between hiring, writing protocols, validating instruments and waiting on facilities, the last thing a new principal investigator or lab manager needs is a procurement maze. LaunchLab exists to take the supply side off your plate — a dedicated new-lab startup program built for the people standing in an empty room with a grant number and a deadline.
Qualifying labs receive 15% off every consumable order for 12 months, applied automatically with no promo codes and no minimums. That covers the supplies a working lab burns through constantly — pipette tips, centrifuge tubes, specimen containers, PPE, reagent bottles, slides and more. On capital equipment like centrifuges, microscopes, freeze dryers and rotary evaporators, your LaunchLab account unlocks member pricing: request a quote and we'll bring our best LaunchLab number to the table. Whether you're equipping a brand-new academic lab, restocking after a facility relocation, or spending down a fresh round of grant funding, LaunchLab is built around how new labs actually buy.
Every order ships free from US-based inventory, which matters more than it sounds when you are working against a grant timeline and cannot afford a part stuck in customs. And because we are an authorized dealer for the brands we carry, you get direct manufacturer support — real engineering and warranty channels for specs and compatibility questions, not a chatbot. New labs choose LaunchLab because it turns a scattered, quote-by-quote buildout into a single account with predictable pricing and a real person on the other end of the phone.

Common Questions
Who qualifies for LaunchLab?
Any lab that meets one of three criteria: (1) a new lab established within the last 6 months, (2) an existing lab that relocated to a new facility within the last 3 months, or (3) a researcher who received a new grant within the last 3 months. This includes academic, clinical, biotech startup, government, industrial, and teaching labs.
How much is the discount?
LaunchLab members receive 15% off every consumable order — pipette tips, tubes, containers, PPE, slides, and all other everyday lab supplies — applied automatically for 12 months with no promo codes. On equipment and instruments, your account unlocks member pricing: request a quote for your LaunchLab number.
How long does the discount last?
Your 15% LaunchLab discount is active for 12 months from the date your account is approved. Before it expires, we'll reach out about renewal options so there's no interruption to your pricing.
Is there a minimum order or annual commitment?
No. Order one box of tips or a full lab buildout — your 15% consumable discount applies every time, with no minimums and no contracts. Plus, every order ships free.
How does pricing work on equipment and instruments?
The automatic 15% applies to consumables. On capital equipment — centrifuges, microscopes, freeze dryers, rotary evaporators and the like — your LaunchLab account unlocks dedicated member pricing instead. Add what you need to a quote request or email us, and we'll come back with your best LaunchLab number, often alongside manufacturer promotions.
Can I use LaunchLab with a purchase order or institutional purchasing?
Absolutely. We accept purchase orders from universities, hospitals, and companies. Your LaunchLab pricing will be reflected on quotes and invoices. Contact us at support@labsupplies.com to set up PO billing.
Can my lab manager or purchasing agent place orders on my behalf?
Yes. Anyone at your institution can place orders using your LaunchLab account and the discount applies automatically. You can also share the account login with your lab team.
What happens after my 12 months are up?
Before your LaunchLab period ends, we'll reach out with renewal options. Many labs continue with a loyalty discount. Either way, there's no obligation — we want to earn your repeat business, not lock you into it.
Do you offer custom quotes for large lab buildouts?
Yes. If you're outfitting a full lab and need a custom equipment and consumables quote, email us at support@labsupplies.com.
