Aport was developed from a very specialist relocation company in the UK, Andrew Porter Ltd. Over the years, our niche expertise in high-level laboratory relocations has evolved, catering to a diverse and expanding customer base that includes large international pharmaceutical companies and Bio-Tech companies. This evolution was driven by the growing need for a service provider that could offer a comprehensive global solution, leading to the establishment of Aport as a standalone entity dedicated to meeting these global demands.
Services
From centrifuges and gas chromatography equipment, through to high value, sensitive mass spectrometers, Aport has the skills and experience to handle, pack and transport all laboratory instrumentation safely, anywhere across the globe.
A supply of boxes/ bubble wrap will be sent to site ahead of time, approx. 1-2 weeks prior, for your team to pre-pack any glassware, consumables or office belongings. A packing list template can be provided if your end user requires details of the specifics.
Aport is proud to be associated with some of the leading instrument OEM's. As well as basic relocation and 'lift to bench', we are pleased to offer a comprehensive selection of Logistics Project Management services.
Transporting hardware is only one part of a laboratory relocation. Many facilities also handle samples and chemicals which may be considered 'Dangerous Goods'. When transporting such items by road, sea or air, there are regulations to be followed.
We understand the vital importance of our clients' ongoing research, and the potentially devastating cost and 'time to market' implications, should the worst happen. Therefore, when it comes to temperature-controlled shipments, we provide end to end expertise and reassurance.
We can arrange insurance on behalf of our clients, to cover the relocation project. All laboratory relocation work, including storage, is operated under the standard BIFA trading conditions. We can also provide an insurance policy on an 'All Risks' basis.
This provides the next level of peace of mind for clients with instruments, equipment, data or other items stored at the firm's extensive warehouse facility. Aport’s professional temperature controlled storage ensures specialist samples are protected for the duration of the storage period.
It is necessary to have an accurate, up-to-date inventory for both business and operational reasons. Over time, as instruments are replaced, inventories can become increasingly inaccurate. We provide inventory services, either as part of a relocation or on an ongoing basis.
Apart facilitate the complete process for clearing customs with a range of assets, new and used, including experience with chemicals and samples. We utilize our in-house expertise along with specialist partners.
why choose
Aport was developed from a highly specialized relocations business in the UK, Andrew Porter Ltd. Over the years, the firm’s specialism in high-level laboratory relocation projects had grown to the point that its customer base included large global pharmaceutical businesses, which in turn, demanded a global service.
To fulfil the needs and expectations of these clients, Aport was born to revolutionize worldwide laboratory relocations provision, in what is a largely fragmented service approach from other providers across key global locations.
