About CRS Scientific

A fluidics company
focused entirely on chromatography.

We don't make a hundred products. We make piston pumps — and we make them better than anyone else who is also trying to make a hundred products.

Our story

CRS Scientific was founded by a team of fluidics engineers who had spent careers inside chromatography instrument companies. We saw, again and again, the same pattern: brilliant instruments held back by mediocre pumps — pumps that were never the priority for the larger generalist suppliers building them.

So we built a company that does only one thing. We engineer and manufacture piston pumps for chromatography. Analytical to preparative. Research to process. Standalone to OEM-integrated.

Today CRS pumps live inside instruments shipped by more than forty brands across North America, Europe, and Asia. Most of those brands you've never heard our name from — because the pump carries their logo, not ours. That's what OEM means.

One discipline. Piston pumps. That's the whole product line.
One customer type. Chromatography instrument manufacturers.
One promise. Your pump shows up on time, performs to spec, and stays supportable for the life of your product.
How we work

The principles that shape every CRS pump.

Engineering honesty

If our pump isn't the right fit for your application, we'll tell you. The cost of a quiet "yes" early in the cycle is a broken integration in the field a year later.

Manufacturing discipline

Serialized assembly, calibrated test fixtures, and statistical process control on every critical dimension. Every pump that leaves our line has been measured, not just inspected.

Supply chain depth

We dual-source critical components and qualify every change before it reaches you. End-of-life management is an engineering responsibility, not a procurement headache passed to your team.

Customer continuity

The applications engineer who supports your bring-up is still your point of contact in year five. Knowledge transfer doesn't happen with a slide deck.

By the numbers

Scale that lets us serve serious OEM programs.

Quality & compliance

The QMS your auditor expects.

Our quality management system is built around the realities of supplying chromatography instruments into regulated markets. We don't ship pumps with promises — we ship them with documentation.

  • ISO 9001:2015 — certified quality management system
  • CE, RoHS, REACH — declarations of conformity for every shipment
  • USP Class VI — material declarations for biocompatible configurations
  • FDA / IVDR support — documentation packages for instrument submissions
  • Serialized traceability — full component and calibration genealogy per pump
  • Change control — customer notification with qualification data before any critical change
