Company Description
Precision Glassblowing has been manufacturing ICP and ICP-MS, general scientific, and custom glassware for over 30 years. We continue to grow with over 50 employees and 400 years of combined professional glassblowing experience. Honesty, integrity, and great customer service are the foundations of our company, and we have developed a reputation for quality products and competitive pricing. We strive to maintain stock on commonly ordered parts so we can offer same-day shipping on most orders. Beyond production manufacturing, Precision is also involved with the R&D of new products, and is equally comfortable in custom one-off production.

Markets Served
Precision Glassblowing serves both original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and end-users on every continent of the globe. With a strong network of global distributors, we are able to provide quality service and prompt attention to our customers in environmental laboratories, quality assurance and quality control, industrial hygiene, pharmaceutical, and university and research labs.
Major Products/Services
Precision Glassblowing is the market leader in ICP and ICP-MS glass consumable production. In addition to spray chambers, injectors, and the largest selection of nebulizers, the majority of ICP torches on the market, globally, are manufactured by Precision Glassblowing. We offer accessories like cones and pump tubing from partner companies for a one-stop shopping experience. Beyond our large stock of new consumables, we also offer repair service on ICP consumables as well as standard and custom laboratory glassware. All parts are inspected by an independent QC department, utilizing the most modern equipment and methods available to ensure parts meet all specifications.
Facility
In addition to nearly 30 glassblowers running 25 lathes of various sizes, our 27,000 square foot facility incorporates a small laboratory and full machine shop with multiple CNC mills, CO2 lasers, ultrasonic mill, and grinding capabilities.
