About us

About Philip Harris

For generations we’ve helped to make sure science is one of the undisputed essentials of a great education. We’ve helped to take it off the blackboard and into the lab, creating a rich, hands-on world of test tubes, circuits, microscopes and awe. Supplying the tools of discovery that have helped young minds unravel the wonder and joy of experimentation and exploration. And we won’t stop developing the new products and resources that keep pushing lessons into exciting new places.

We empower science departments with high quality equipment, expert advice and technician-to-technician support. So, you can empower students with practical skills, invaluable knowledge and a lifelong love of scientific discovery.

We are Philip Harris. Explorers of science since 1817.
