Greiner Bio-One : What consumables for research, quality control and diagnosticss?

A subsidiary of the Austrian Greiner AG, Greiner Bio-One designs and manufactures high-value laboratory consumables for research, quality control and diagnostics. Known for its CELLSTAR cell culture range, µClear microplates and PCR consumables, the brand combines consistent industrial manufacturing with rigorous regulatory compliance. With Dutscher, it equips academic, biotech and pharma laboratories across Europe, backed by local technical support.

A leading supplier with a long-standing tradition

Rooted in Kremsmünster (Austria), Greiner Bio-One emerged in 2001 from the evolution of Greiner Labortechnik, itself built on the plastics expertise of the Greiner Group founded in 1868. Since then, the company has organised its activities around three complementary pillars: BioScience (R&D and manufacturing), Preanalytics (sample collection and transport) and Diagnostics. It has supported the rise of modern biology with landmark innovations: the first CELLSTAR culture dishes and flasks, and µClear imaging microplates. Present across Europe and worldwide, it relies on certified sites and a robust logistics network — all in the name of reliability.

Expertise and areas of specialisation

For cell culture, Greiner Bio-One sets the standard with its dishes, flasks and microplates CELLSTAR.

In analysis and imaging, its 96- to 1536-well microplates, in black or white, are available as high-binding versions for ELISA, low-autofluorescence for fluorescence/luminescence, and with µClear optical bottoms for microscopy. Flatness, uniform wall thickness and barcode options support HTS/HCS workflows and quality traceability.

The brand rounds out the portfolio with PCR consumables (plates, tubes, sealing films), pipette tips, 15/50 mL centrifuge tubes, serological pipettes and cryovials, engineered for instrument compatibility and consistent performance. As part of Greiner’s sustainability programme, it is working to reduce packaging, energy consumption and material footprint. Together with Dutscher, it delivers availability, expert guidance and reliable supply continuity.
