We are pleased to announce that The Scientific Instrument Centre has successfully completed the acquisition of Ascot Autoclaves!

The acquisition further strengthens our position as a trusted supplier in the scientific equipment and laboratory sterilisation sector. This milestone represents an important step forward for SIC, building on a legacy that dates back to 1947, during which we have earned a strong reputation for exceptional sales support and aftercare across laboratory glasswashers, washer disinfectors, and decontamination equipment.

As part of this development, Ascot Autoclaves will be integrated into the business and rebranded as The Scientific Instrument Centre (SIC). This expansion enhances our product portfolio with a comprehensive range of laboratory autoclaves, including the industry-leading CiSA range. From benchtop units to fully integrated large-scale systems, this addition significantly broadens our ability to provide reliable, compliant sterilisation solutions.

By incorporating autoclave supply, installation, servicing, and support into our offering, SIC is now even better positioned to deliver a wider selection of market-leading solutions to both new and existing customers—all supported by the responsive, high-quality service standards our clients expect.
