Caribbean Scientific Since 84, we're distributors and service providers for lab and process equipment in PR 🇵🇷 (FIS) with a single sales division.

Founded in 1984, we are a family-owned business that specializes as distributors of laboratory and process equipment, instrumentation, and supplies for the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries and educational laboratories. With over 30 years of experience, Caribbean Scientific opened its doors as Filtration Instrumentation Specialist, Inc. In 1993, a sister company was founded to provide service to the equipment sold by FIS under the name of VCI, Inc. In 2002, the companies merged to form FIS-VCI, Inc. The company prides itself on being recognized for providing its customers with a superior service experience. A team of dedicated sales and technical personnel work with our customers to fully understand their needs and provide them with all the products and services solutions required. The service division is staffed by our expert technicians trained to calibrate, validate, repair, and perform preventive maintenance on laboratory equipment, with a special focus on the areas of refrigeration and particle counters. Caribbean Scientific is committed to providing prompt, reliable, and superior quality service and distribution to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean Islands.

🔬 Same RPM. Different Force

Did you know two centrifuges running at the same RPM can produce different forces?

Rotor radius makes the difference! Understanding RPM vs. RCF (×g) helps ensure consistent, reproducible results.

A great laboratory starts long before the furniture is installed.
Utilities, clearances, equipment placement and workflow all shape how the space will function once the lab is in use.
This Sagrado Corazón chemistry lab project shows how thoughtful planning and installation come together to create a workspace designed around the people and equipment inside it.

Back to -80°C. Does that tell the whole story? ❄️

Following a temperature excursion, recovering the freezer's setpoint is only part of the assessment.

Exposure duration, load characteristics, and the available temperature data can all influence how the event is evaluated.

Swipe through to explore why equipment recovery and material protection are not necessarily the same thing.

Featuring PHCbi ULT freezer solutions.

Incubator or environmental chamber? 🌡️

They may serve similar temperature-controlled workflows, but the right choice starts with one question:

What does your application actually need controlled?

Temperature may be the primary requirement—or your study may also require humidity, light, CO₂, or a broader operating range.

Swipe through for a quick framework to help distinguish where each type of equipment may fit.

Featuring Thermo Fisher Scientific Heratherm solutions available through Caribbean Scientific.

Your EM program found an isolate. Now what? 🧫

Join Microbiologics on September 22 at 11:30 AM ET for a practical discussion on turning environmental monitoring data into action.

The webinar will cover how to identify meaningful isolates, decide which ones to retain, and use recurrence, location, and process risk to support contamination control and routine QC.

Especially relevant for professionals in QC Microbiology, Environmental Monitoring, QA, and Contamination Control.

Patient safety starts before the patient.

Behind every reliable result and informed clinical decision are systems designed to support accuracy, consistency and control. Calibration, validation and stable environmental conditions help strengthen the laboratory processes that care teams depend on every day.

✓ Reliable measurements
✓ Controlled conditions
✓ Documented processes

On World Patient Safety Day, we recognize the laboratory professionals and healthcare teams working behind the scenes to support safer care.

Cold storage is part of your quality process, not simply a place to keep materials cold.

From receiving to daily monitoring, temperature-sensitive materials require storage conditions aligned with your facility’s procedures. The ARG3PV supports this workflow with an adjustable +2°C to +8°C operating range, external microprocessor controls, alarm functionality and a compact 3 cu. ft. footprint.

✓ Defined temperature range
✓ Clear temperature visibility
✓ Audible and visual alarms
✓ Organized, purpose-built storage
