Loan equipment and back-up stock for laboratories

Downtime in the laboratory costs time, money and sometimes valuable samples. Our loan equipment and extensive back-up stock keep your processes running, whether you need temporary extra capacity or a quick replacement during a breakdown.

Four situations for borrowing equipment

Loan equipment offers flexibility whenever your own laboratory equipment temporarily falls short or is unavailable. These are the scenarios our customers typically rely on us for.

Temporary extra capacity

Scale up quickly during peak workloads or larger research projects without committing to a new purchase.

Bridging during maintenance

Is your equipment scheduled for preventive maintenance or repair? Bridge the period with a loan unit.

Immediate replacement on breakdown

When an unexpected defect occurs, our back-up stock ensures immediate replacement while a new unit is arranged.

Validation and qualification

Temporary support during validation, qualification or refurbishment activities, so your processes run without interruption.

A replacement unit always on hand

Alongside our own stock, we maintain a large storage facility where customer-specific back-up laboratory equipment can also be kept. This means that in the event of a breakdown or defect, a replacement unit can be delivered straight from our warehouse.

This approach minimises the risk of prolonged downtime caused by faulty equipment and provides critical processes with the continuity they require.

Everything about loan equipment and back-up stock

How quickly can a loan unit be delivered?

This depends on current availability and the type of equipment. For customers with a customer-specific back-up stored at our facility, delivery is usually possible within a short time after notification. For regular loan requests, we align the delivery time with you directly.

What is the difference between loan equipment and back-up stock?

Loan equipment is a temporary solution from our general stock, for example for extra capacity or to bridge a maintenance period. A customer-specific back-up stock is equipment held exclusively for your organisation, so that in the event of a breakdown the same type of replacement unit can be delivered immediately.

Which equipment is covered by your loan and back-up solutions?

We offer solutions for a wide range of laboratory equipment, including refrigerators, freezers, ULT freezers, cryogenic storage, CO₂ incubators, centrifuges and water baths. For specific models or brands, please get in touch with us.

Is the loan equipment checked before use?

Yes. All equipment is checked and tested at our own facilities before it is shipped to you, so you can get started right away.

What are the costs of loan equipment?

Costs depend on the type of equipment, the required duration and any additional arrangements such as a customer-specific back-up stock. Request a quote for a tailored proposal.

Can I arrange a customer-specific back-up stock?

Certainly. We do this regularly for organisations where continuity is critical, for example in the pharmaceutical industry, biotech and medical diagnostics. We work with you to define which equipment is kept in reserve and under which conditions delivery takes place.

Can I purchase a loan unit later?

In many cases this is negotiable. If a loan unit works well or your organisation decides to purchase, we can usually arrange a suitable deal. Contact us to discuss the options.

Loan equipment for the laboratory

Poly Temp Scientific offers loan equipment for laboratories that need temporary extra capacity or a quick replacement unit. With more than forty years of experience in service and maintenance of laboratory equipment, we know how important continuity is, particularly for temperature-critical processes and valuable samples.

Back-up stock for maximum continuity

Our large storage facility in Bolsward allows us to keep customer-specific back-up laboratory equipment in addition to our own stock. In the event of a breakdown or defect, we can deliver a replacement unit immediately, which is especially valuable for organisations in the pharmaceutical industry and biotech and medical diagnostics where process interruptions can have major consequences.

Flexible deployment across sectors

Our loan equipment is used by laboratories in a variety of sectors, including the food industry and agriculture and horticulture. Whether you need to scale up during a production validation, bridge a maintenance period or arrange a permanent back-up for your most critical equipment, we are happy to think along with you about a suitable solution.
