With a rich history dating back to 1884, Astell has become the leading manufacturer of autoclaves and sterilizers worldwide. The company was initially established as Charles Hearson & Company, specializing in autoclaves and incubators for medical practitioners. Over the years, Astell continued to evolve and expand its product range, offering temperature-controlled equipment and laboratory apparatus. In the 1950s, Astell Laboratory Service Company, founded by Tom Ashton and Reg Cuttell, merged with Charles Hearson & Company to form Astell Hearson. In 1988, the company was renamed Astell Scientific and has since maintained its position as an industry leader. Astell's autoclaves and sterilizers are trusted by professionals in over 100 countries, and their products are known for their quality, reliability, and innovative features.
