Solvent evaporation specialists Genevac have named BPS (Biopharma Process Systems) as their new UK distributor.

Genevac, part of SP Scientific, has established itself as an industry leader by partnering with customers to understand the obstacles involved in using centrifugal evaporation/concentration systems. This partnership has led to the development of a range of innovations to meet solvent evaporation challenges and to simplify the work of scientists. For example, anti-bumping technologies prevent cross-contamination while auto-stop systems enable researchers to walk away from the machine while in use without worrying about over-processing.

These high performance centrifugal solvent evaporator systems are used in chemistry, biology and analytical science applications worldwide. The range includes the popular EZ2 and miVac brands, unique Rocket fast evaporators, and HT series High Throughput evaporators.

Genevac is a subsidiary of SP Scientific, a leading manufacturer of specialty equipment for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, industrial, academic, and OEM applications.

Genevac and BPS

BPS has been a distributor for SP Scientific since 1997, when they began representing VirTis brand freeze dryers in the UK and Ireland. In 2010 they also began to distribute Genevac miVac sample concentrators. In 2014 SP Scientific made the strategic decision to move away from direct sales and BPS was awarded the UK distributorship for Genevac products. This move integrates the whole of Genevac’s range into BPS’ portfolio.

Dedicated sales contact

The sales contact for evaporation and concentration products is Ian Bailey, who has been working in this field since 2003. Having worked previously direct for Genevac, Ian has considerable expertise in the application of evaporation processes for different product types.
