Karlsruhe, March 22, 2025 – For almost a century and a half, Carl Roth GmbH & Co. KG from Karlsruhe has stood for the highest quality in laboratory supplies and chemicals. What began as a small company in 1879 has developed into a globally valued specialist for science and industry. With a mix of tradition, innovative spirit, and an ear to the pulse of the times, Carl Roth supports researchers and laboratories with first-class products.
From the start to today
Founded by Carl Wilhelm Roth, the company originally started by supplying pharmacies and small laboratories. Over time, the ambition grew: today, their catalog contains thousands of products, ranging from simple lab aids to highly complex research tools. Examples? The “ROTI®Nanoquant” test, a kit for the precise determination of proteins and DNA in tiny amounts, or the “ROTISOLV®” solvents, valued in chromatography for their purity.
Quality that convinces
Carl Roth places great importance on its products meeting the highest standards. A good example is the “ROTI®Histofix” fixative solution, used in histology to perfectly preserve tissue samples. Such specialized products make the company the go-to provider for universities and biotech firms. In addition, there is a strong focus on sustainability: packaging is increasingly made from recyclable materials, and efforts are being made to reduce energy consumption in production.
Service meets digitalization
In addition to product quality, Carl Roth scores with its service. Customers can rely on fast deliveries – for example, when a laboratory urgently needs “ROTI®Luminol” for chemiluminescence reactions. The modern online shop makes ordering a breeze, and digital extras like safety data sheets or application tips help in everyday work. A team of experts is also available to provide support with tricky questions.
What comes next?
Carl Roth GmbH has no intention of resting on its laurels. The company plans to reach even more international customers and develop new products – perhaps soon an even more efficient kit for genetic engineering or more environmentally friendly chemicals. With their blend of experience and curiosity, Carl Roth remains an indispensable companion for the science of tomorrow.
