What are your go-to suppliers for lab consumables?
Hey all, our lab's been having a bit of a supply chain kerfuffle lately, and it's got me wondering if we should diversify our suppliers for lab consumables. We typically get most of our stuff from just one or two major vendors. Lately, lead times have increased, backorders are rampant, and the prices seem to keep creeping up. What are your go-to suppliers for things like pipette tips, tubes, gloves, and culture flasks? Anyone have a hidden gem they'd be willing to share?

For a lot of our general lab consumables, we often use what we can find at https://gentaur.co.uk/ . They carry a decent range of common items, and their prices are competitive. I've found that their shipping is pretty reliable too, which is always a plus when you're running low on something essential. It's still vital to compare prices and stock levels across different suppliers. So far our lab is happy with the choices they have!
