Lake Charles Manufacturing

Situated along Gerstner Memorial Drive in Lake Charles, Lake Charles Manufacturing operates as a labware production facility under the Karter Scientific Labware Manufacturing brand. The facility focuses on manufacturing laboratory glassware and plasticware, with its product line spanning graduated cylinders, flasks, slides, bottles, centrifuge tubes, and petri dishes — the core consumables and vessels that research laboratories, educational institutions, and industrial testing environments depend on day to day.

The operation has drawn enough local civic attention to merit a facility tour by Louisiana State Senator Stine and Lake Charles City Mayor Hunter, a signal of the manufacturer's presence within the regional industrial landscape. Positioned on the Gerstner Memorial Drive corridor, the facility sits in a part of Lake Charles long associated with commercial and light-industrial activity, placing it within reasonable reach of the petrochemical and research sectors that define much of Southwest Louisiana's economy.

For buyers sourcing laboratory supplies at the manufacturing level rather than through distribution intermediaries, the facility represents a direct production source for standard labware items. The product categories covered address routine laboratory needs across scientific, medical, and educational settings, making the operation a functional point of contact for organizations that require consistent, reproducible labware components rather than specialty or custom scientific instruments.
