 NJDL Supplies, Inc. (doing business as Weber Scientific since 1985) was formed in 1959 as part of New Jersey Dairy Laboratories, a commercial testing facility. New Jersey Dairy Laboratories, located in New Brunswick, was founded in 1936 and is still active today as New Jersey Laboratories. NJDL Supplies incorporated in 1968 and became totally autonomous in 1979, the year Fred Weber became involved in the business.
NJDL Supplies was started for several reasons. Many of New Jersey Dairy Laboratories' customers -- dairy processors in the metropolitan tri-state area -- were beginning to put laboratories in-house for the first time and requested that their commercial lab supply them with what they would need. Also, New Jersey Dairy Laboratories had several proprietary products to market, primarily the Gerber butterfat test and the Levowitz-Weber bacteriological stain.
Weber Scientific has evolved to become a nation-wide direct marketer of quality control supplies, maintaining a focus primarily to the dairy and food processing industries. Our headquarters and modern warehouse are located in Hamilton, NJ. |
