Our staff members, many of whom are former educators, understand your unique needs and the challenges you face in the classroom and laboratory. They often collaborate with teachers and institutions to develop and distribute new educational products. The benefits of this approach can be seen in the way these products help you engage and motivate students.
Success Stories
Working with the National Science Resources Center, our staff was instrumental in creating the effective and successful Science and Technology for Children® (STC®) program. Developed and tested by teachers, STC® is an inquiry-based elementary science curriculum that engages students in hands-on learning.
Wisconsin Fast Plants teaching materials were developed in association with the University of Wisconsin. They address all aspects of plant biology while providing hands-on learning opportunities for students. They are another example of the benefits of our collaborative approach.
80 Years and Still "Growing" Strong
From its founding in 1927 by Dr. Thomas E. Powell, Jr., Carolina Biological Supply Company has been dedicated to a collaborative approach. A professor at Elon College (now Elon University), Dr. Powell collected natural specimens for his class and discovered that he could sell the surplus to other teachers and professors. He soon realized that a collaborative approach, with his company providing the centralized collection and distribution of educational products, would free teachers to make better use of their time in the classroom and laboratory.
World-Class Support
Since 1927, our collaborative approach has not only brought teachers innovative, quality products, it has also been instrumental in providing world-class support that includes unmatched customer service and prompt, reliable delivery. Every department in the company works together to ensure that we have what you want when you want it. And every product we offer is backed by The Carolina Pledge: 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed. All of our products are unconditionally guaranteed. If for any reason you are not satisfied with any item, you may return it for a replacement, a refund, or credit. It's that simple.
