The Company
SCAT Europe GmbH (Safety-Center für AnalysenTechnik) develops and manufactures safety solutions for the safe handling of solvents in analytical laboratories in Mörfelden-Walldorf. Starting from a maintenance and service operation for HPLC systems, the company launched in 1998 as the first on the market with safety products for solvent supply and disposal. The portfolio includes Safety Caps and Safety Waste Caps for HPLC systems, safety funnels, level controls, containers, accessories as well as the complete SymLine installation system for central laboratory supply and disposal. Custom products are developed and manufactured to customer requirements. In-house production takes place in modern CNC manufacturing with an own machine park; materials used include PE-HD, PE-HD-EL (electrically conductive), PTFE, PEEK, stainless steel, brass and activated carbon. Customers include pharmaceutical and chemical companies as well as analytical laboratories; more than 50,000 HPLC systems worldwide use supply and disposal systems from SCAT. The company is a member of EGNATON e. V. and of SEFA.

Materials and Processes
PE-HD (high-density polyethylene)
Plastic with high chemical resistance for safety funnels, containers and Safety Caps.
PE-HD-EL (electrically conductive)
Antistatic plastic with grounding connection to prevent electrostatic discharge with solvents.
PTFE
Highly chemically resistant material for filters and seals in HPLC supply systems.
PEEK (GreenLine, fluorine-free)
Fluorine-free high-performance plastic as a PFAS-free alternative to PTFE in the GreenLine product line.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel for funnels and components subject to high mechanical and chemical stress.
Brass
Material for capacitive rod sensors (M18x1) in the level control.
PA (polyamide)
Plastic for mounting material of the level control.
Glass
Material for laboratory bottles in the container range.
Activated carbon
Activated carbon with 1.500 m²/g internal surface area in exhaust air filters, tested to DIN/ISO/ASTM standards.
