- Dates – 3rd – 4th December 2021
- Location – NEC Birmingham, UK

Over the past few years, PetroStrat have been able to attend Lab Innovations at the NEC in Birmingham. It is a great source of information for new products, innovations, and suppliers we can utilise for our labs in PetroStrat. Last year Covid struck and there was no Lab Innovations. This year we are proud that it was back, and we sent a group of technicians from both Conwy and Northwich labs to check out the new technologies, ideas, and products on offer.
Our technicians were amazed by all the innovative products and services available at Lab Innovations. The key topic this year was sustainability within the lab environment. Reducing waste and creating ways of recycling with what we use is a very important initiative we are aiming for at PetroStrat. To become Greener, more sustainable, and reducing waste.
We were not disappointed with the range of items on show. There were products for sustainability which included personal protective equipment, lab ware, and lab equipment/consumable recycling schemes. There were other products on show from new software’s all the way to robotic arms. We were pleased to tick all the things on our list that we were looking for in order to update, improve, and gain new ideas for our laboratories. Being able to attend the Advance Engineering show through Lab Innovations is an extra bonus as this also helps gain ideas from new technologies in other industries that we could utilise at PetroStrat.
With very approachable staff at every stand, we found answers to all our questions and learned so much about how to do our job safely, both for our staff and the environment. And not to mention all the freebies!!! Thank you for a great time in Birmingham, and we will for sure be there again next year!
