About Us

Jaytec Glass has earned its reputation as a leading manufacturer and supplier of standard and custom scientific glassware.  We have over 60 years experience in volumetric glassware calibration and scientific glass blowing. We are based in Hastings, East Sussex in the UK. We serve customers in the UK and across the world.

All of our customers benefit from prompt delivery, consistent quality and competitive prices with no minimum orders.  This is because Jaytec Glass, unlike many other manufacturers, still maintains control of the whole production process. All key processes are carried out in-house; this includes graphic design, screen manufacture, glass blowing, calibration and etching.  We also stock key components to improve turnaround time.  

Jaytec Glass also offers a free Lab Glassware Savings Review – we visit your laboratory to identify any potential cost savings that could be made with standard and custom lab glass. Contact us for more information.

Jaytec Glass was founded as F. R. Jones Limited in 1947. Our scientific glass blowers were originally based in Islington under the Jaytec brand, until the firm outgrew the site and moved to Hastings in East Sussex in 1975. The company was sold in 2004 to the current management team.
