虽然现在的名称Astell Scientific是在20世纪80年代末采用的,但该公司在灭菌和高压灭菌器制造方面有着悠久的历史,可以追溯到130多年前。
查尔斯·赫斯顿于1884年成立了查尔斯·赫斯顿公司,这是一家专门为医生制造高压灭菌器和培养箱的公司。该公司在20世纪上半叶继续发展,提供温控和其他实验室设备。
Although the current name Astell Scientific was adopted in the late 1980’s, the company can trace a rich history in sterilization and autoclave manufacturing that extends back over 130 years.
Charles Hearson established Charles Hearson & Co. in 1884, a company specialising in the manufacture of autoclaves and incubators for medical practitioners. The company continued to evolve through the early half of the twentieth century offering temperature controlled and other laboratory apparatus.
