SERVICE IS OUR SOLE FOCUS
Competitor filters are taking as long as 6 months to a year to ship – Strainrite can deliver faster. When competitors say “no” to a customized filter, Strainrite welcomes the opportunity. We can supply on time, by manufacturing in the USA in a timely manner. Further our network of Master Distributors are equipped with testing capabilities and keep safety stock in a nearby warehouse. 
We believe in developing and maintaining long-term, strategic relationships with clients in order to deliver innovative real time solutions to specific customer and market requirements.
SCIENCE IS OUR SPECIALTY
Strainrite’s experienced personnel possess product knowledge as well as biopharma and regulatory training to assist with a wide range of challenges. Our pharmaceutical grade filters are specialized, validated, designed-for-purpose, QC tested, and clean room manufactured to ISO9001 and cGMP standards. We can help you to optimize a process to filter a batch effectively at the lowest cost per liter. Our consultative approach focuses on custom solutions to filtration problems. We commit the time and resources to tailor our products to our clients’ unique requirements. 
SATISFACTION IS OUR STANDARD
We can help you satisfy regulatory requirements with filters certified to USP standards, validated to perform, factory tested, and testable by the filter user in production.
We can satisfy diverse filter needs, from liquid pre- and final-filters to filtration of sterile gases — with a wide array of filter materials to choose from. Extensive research and development, coupled with stringent quality control standards, provides our clients with consistent, reliable filtration products.
