A Century of Innovation in Laboratory Sciences

Since 1924, Cargille Laboratories has been at the forefront of specialized services in the laboratory sciences. Our journey began with the development and manufacturing of optical liquids and has since expanded into a broad spectrum of laboratory disciplines, including preservatives and density standards.
