Pacific Science, Inc. was formed in 1995 by Michael Lebbin
and Chris Conrad. If you would like more information about
Pacific Science, Inc., please feel free to contact any of
our offices.
Don't bother looking for Pacific Science Inc. in the Yellow
Pages. The research equipment sales company yanked all its
ads for cryogenic freezers a few years ago after receiving
one too many distressed phone calls from family members of
the dearly departed.
Pacific Science has grown rapidly over the past five years
by selling equipment to businesses involved in the medical
field. That growth stems from the explosion of new biotechnology
firms and the corresponding need for an array of specialty
equipment like incubators, freezers, biological safety cabinets,
and even metal cassettes (designed by Pacific Science) to
hold bags of umbilical-cord blood.
The Torrance firm sells laboratory equipment to industry giants
like Amgen Inc. and Chiron Corp.; research centers at UCLA,
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and other hospitals; and a host
of smaller firms hoping to develop the next great wonder drug.
"Biotech is advancing very rapidly, so there are always
opportunities for companies like ours to fill the needs that
arise when companies move into new areas," Lebbin said.
