VWR has long been the leading global, independent provider of product and service solutions to laboratory and production customers, enabling science for customers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, industrial, education, government and healthcare industries.

In 2017, VWR was acquired by Avantor, a global supplier of ultra-high-purity materials and customized solutions for the life sciences and advanced technology industries. VWR’s expansive channel access and deep customer relationships strengthens Avantor’s abilities, adding a vital new dimension to the full scope of solutions we can provide—from discovery to delivery.

Our new company will operate under the Avantor name. The VWR brand and vwr.com will remain as a selling channel. Equally important, our proven legacy brands, such as the full portfolio of VWR brands, will continue to be available through existing sales channels.
