As the world's renewable resources continue to fall victim to pollution, overconsumption and evolving policies, the field of environmental science is more necessary than ever. That means having the best resources and equipment in every lab to continue innovating new solutions for age-old problems. 

At New Life Scientific, we are dedicated to moving your science forward. We support you by making used environmental testing equipment more reliable and affordable. Explore the options available for your industry from major manufacturers like Biotage, Perkin Elmer, Sakura and QIAGEN at a fraction of the price you'll find elsewhere.

Equip Your Environmental Science Lab Responsibly

As a lab or facility dedicated to the advancement of environmental wellness, you understand the importance of reducing your ecological footprint and working with reliable instruments that prioritize accuracy. Great news — you are in good company when you choose New Life Scientific. 

We source used equipment, testing it for quality assurance before reintroducing it to the market. Labs like yours can acquire like-new instruments responsibly and save money while doing so, preventing these instruments from ending up in a landfill.

The Benefits of Buying Used Lab Equipment for Environmental Analysis

While the environmental benefit is clear, there are plenty of other reasons to buy preowned lab equipment for environmental monitoring and analysis. As you conserve resources and reduce waste at your facility, you also benefit from:

  • A circular economy: Buying used supports a more circular economy for the nation. The more items we can reuse or repurpose, the fewer new units that need to be developed, encouraging more people to shop for used equipment.
  • Reduced costs: One of the other main reasons many businesses shop used is cost savings. At New Life Scientific, most of our used equipment costs 30% to 70% less than a new model of the same quality.
  • Reliable performance: When your environmental science lab equipment is used, you know that it has already proven itself as a reliable product. New Life Scientific rigorously tests all equipment we receive and refurbishes it when needed. When you explore our catalog, you can rest assured that it has already met our stringent operational standards.
  • Faster availability: Trying to get the newest equipment and latest models can be a challenge when everyone else is doing the same thing. Lengthy lead times can keep you waiting for months. We prepare our equipment for shipment as soon as you place your order. We take pride in our quick lead times that put the instruments you want in your lab sooner.

Our Featured Environmental Lab Equipment for Sale

Our inventory of environmental science used lab equipment can set your facility up for success in water quality testing, air quality monitoring, soil analysis, waste management or the research and development of any of these areas. Take advantage of these deals today.

Spectrophotometers

Spectrophotometers can offer critical insights about the water quality in an area. Our selection of infrared (IR) spectrophotometers includes options designed to detect and measure pollutants and contaminants in waterways.

Mass Spectrometry (MS) Systems

Whether you work with water samples, soil or waste, an MS system can help you identify compounds and get a closer look at complex molecular structures. When one atom or structure can make all the difference, trust our accurate mass spectrometers to operate reliably.

Gas Chromatography (GC) Systems

Detecting and identifying the correct volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can make a difference in many lives and businesses, and a precise GC system is often the best device to do so. Analyze air and soil alike for harmful additives so others can take action accordingly.

Liquid Chromatography (LC) Systems

Similar to our used spectrophotometers, LC systems can also aid in finding pollutants in water and wastewater, defining measurements that can lead to actionable change. Give your lab the right equipment to separate and understand every compound in these and other vital locations.

Other Used Environmental Testing Equipment

Our complete inventory also includes extensive selections of pH meters, centrifuges, microscopes and other equipment to suit your applications. Whether your lab specializes in soil analysis, waste management or quality assurance, our catalog ensures you are prepared for any operation.

Ensuring Quality and Reliability

At the core of New Life Scientific, Inc. is our mission to move your science forward by ensuring your access to quality, lab-grade used equipment. Used equipment can save laboratories, research facilities, hospitals and universities hundreds or thousands of dollars every year, stretching budgets to make the most of what they have. However, buying from an unreliable source can ultimately cost you more and decrease the quality of your results. That is why we have established a comprehensive selection of refurbished scientific equipment you can trust.

Since 2014, our focus has been perfecting the refurbishment process so buyers like you can find the right instruments for the right price without sacrificing integrity. You have a right to know how we do it — take a look at the details of our refurbishing process and quality control measures.

How Does New Life Scientific Refurbish Equipment? A Detailed Step-by-Step Guide

Only instruments from reputable manufacturers make the cut for our refurbishing program, so you can find names you trust alongside our seal of approval. We take our commitment to our customers seriously by setting strict internal standards that meet or exceed applicable regulatory guidelines. If the product meets our high bar, it moves forward into our detailed process, wherein every inch is reviewed and tested against industry best practices.

1. Procurement and Initial Evaluation

Our selection of used laboratory equipment comes from labs and facilities across the world. We make it easy for them to sell the tools they no longer need or trade in the old for something new (to them). They get to free up space for new workflows, and we get to expand our selection so buyers like you can sustainably procure what you need.

If you'd like to sell your equipment, you can submit an online form with images and specifications of your unit. Our purchasing team will review your submission, research current market demand and evaluate the equipment’s condition and resale potential. With this information, our team can determine a fair offer price. If more details are needed, we will reach out to you directly. 

You can also trade in your equipment when purchasing items from us. Similar to our purchasing process, you can submit an online form with details about your instrument, and our team will conduct the same steps to thoroughly review your item and make an offer. If you approve, the value is applied toward your purchase. After payment is completed, we ship your new equipment and arrange for the secure pickup and transport of your traded item.

2. Repair and Component Replacement

Once we've purchased the used equipment and it arrives at our facility in Cridersville, Ohio, it can move on to our repair and replacement stage. While products with major defects fall short of our standards, minor issues are fixable during our repair and replacement stage. Even the most well-kept instruments eventually show signs of wear, and we take care of that by repairing parts where we can and replacing essential features with entirely new machinery. We source parts like belts, filters and electrical components from some of the most trusted names in scientific equipment. 

Once they're installed and the repairs are complete, we test, adjust and retest until the product works like new. Our testing process replicates some of the most extreme standards common in the laboratory, so we can confirm its effectiveness in your operations.

3. Cleaning and Cosmetic Refurbishment

Finally, our technicians take a step back and look at the big picture. First, we clean every part of the equipment, whether it's a simple glass flask or a complex liquid handling device, to remove contaminants. Then, we focus on any cosmetic blemishes and fix them so they look as close to a new model as possible. After a final check that everything is in good condition, we are finally ready to list the product online for you to purchase or trade in your own tools.

New Life Scientific's Technician Checklist: Maintaining Transparency and Accountability

Equipment inspection is perhaps the most critical part of our refurbishment process, as it is where we go through every part and feature with a fine-tooth comb. This is when we separate the useful from the damaged so we can ensure the quality of the equipment is unmatched.

Our checklists are highly specific and customized to the equipment types we accept, ensuring we catch the smallest details that can make or break your operations. This checklist includes:

  • Mechanical inspection: The moving parts of any machine are the ones most likely to show signs of wear and tear. That is why they are some of the first places we analyze for resale suitability. We update or replace these parts on most products, so you can look forward to the longest lifespan possible and avoid premature servicing needs.
  • Electrical testing: If the product has any electrical components, we look at the full wiring system to look for any potential hazards and make sure they align with current safety standards.
  • Software calibration: Following the hardware evaluation, we look inward to the software and firmware. We will install any necessary system updates and recalibrate the machine so it is ready for operation when you receive it.
  • Performance testing: Once we make sure all the systems are up to date, we can move on to performance testing. We use the product's original specifications to create procedures that prove the refurbished product works as well as the original.
  • Additional observations: As the technician works through their checklist, they will make detailed notes about any observations and updates they make to the product, creating a documented history for future buyers and servicers. NLS technicians are trained to be as specific as possible and to explain their reasoning where necessary.
  • Technician information: Our technicians take pride in their work and hold themselves accountable. Every report includes the technician's name and the date of the inspection for your peace of mind.

These checklists and reviews are available upon request for any party interested in purchasing our used equipment. When you contact us for a quote, let us know if you'd like to see the refurbishing checklist, and we will send it to you right away. We can even review the details with you so you can gain a complete understanding of the product before you buy.
