Who We Are
HINOTEK is an independent laboratory equipment supplier based in China. We work with experienced manufacturers to provide reliable, application-appropriate instruments for research, education, healthcare, quality control, and industrial laboratories.
Our role goes beyond presenting a catalogue. We listen to your application requirements, help compare suitable options, and coordinate the details that make international purchasing easier—from product selection and documentation to delivery and after-sales communication.
Customers come to us with different priorities. Some need a single instrument for a defined method; others are equipping a new laboratory or expanding a distribution portfolio. In each case, we keep the conversation grounded in the application, working environment, expected throughput, and available budget. The goal is simple: a well-informed choice and equipment that performs as expected.

Our Story
Experience Behind Every Recommendation
HINOTEK was founded in 2002 by George and Melinda with a clear purpose: to make dependable, competitively priced laboratory equipment more accessible to customers around the world.
Before co-founding HINOTEK, George spent ten years with a microscope manufacturer and later worked as a maintenance engineer for laboratory instruments. Today, he brings more than 30 years of experience across equipment design, production, sales, and service to the way we evaluate products and support customers.
That hands-on background continues to shape our company: understand the instrument, respect the application, communicate clearly, and take responsibility for the details.
Work hard. Have fun. Take care of each other.
