:: Company History ::
- Campden Instruments originated on
Campden Hill Road, in the Kensington area of London in
1970.
- Psychologist Dr. Karl Weiss built
up a company that made the most innovative operant
equipment of the time as well as other physiological
instruments for which the company became famous.
From 1982 Campden
commenced production of the Vibroslice™ tissue slicer
which has since become used the world over by
neuroscientists, electrophysiologists, pathologists and
embryologists for the sectioning of fresh tissue.
Campden is also most famous for
it’s Micropipette Puller that was used in the first IVF
treatments by Dr. G. D. Palermo, M.D., at Cornell Medical
Centre, New York.
When Dr. Weiss retired in the late
1980’s Campden was acquired by a UK PLC which added
engineering expertise.
In 1991 Campden acquired the sole
UK distributor agreement for Lafayette Instrument Co., of
Lafayette, Indiana. USA.
In October 1998 Campden was
acquired by Lafayette Instrument Co. This was a welcome
return to ownership by a Life Science company with a
complimentary line of products and many common goals and
direction.
