🚨 Big news from Team Hardy! 🚨

We’re thrilled to announce our new collaboration and a commercialization partnership with Mango, a forward-thinking startup company that’s changing the game in pharmaceutical sterility testing. Their innovative rapid test technology has the potential to transform the way the industry approaches sterility - faster, smarter, and more reliable.

To kick things off, we recently hosted Mango’s technical team at our Santa Maria HQ for a full tour and collaborative discussions. In return, a team of Hardy co-owners made the trip to Santa Monica to visit Mango’s facility and connect with key members of their growing team. It’s been an exciting start to a promising partnership! 🤝

🤩 Stay tuned for more updates, and mark your calendars! We’ll be exhibiting at the PDA Pharmaceutical Microbiology Conference this October 2025 in Washington D.C. Hope to see you there!

Born on July 18, 1635, Robert Hooke is the British physicist that is remembered remembered as one of the founding figures of microbiology!

🔬 With his groundbreaking book "Micrographia," Hooke opened a hidden world by documenting what he saw through one of the earliest microscopes. Most notably, he was the first to use the term "cell" when observing the structure of cork - comparing the tiny compartments to monastery cells.

While he didn’t observe bacteria (that credit goes to van Leeuwenhoek from Holland), his detailed illustrations of molds, plant tissues, and insects sparked scientific curiosity across Europe and laid the foundation for the cell theory and microscopics that we know today.

🎉 Happy birthday to the man who helped us see the unseen!

🆕You Asked. We Acted. You, our valued customers, asked us to reconfigure our packaging for our popular AnaeroGRO™ pre-reduced plated media line, and we did.

Due to your requests, we recently made improvements to our packaging for our one plate, two plate, three plate, and four plate AnaeroGRO™ pouches. We shook, we rattled, and even rolled, and we determined that the pouches were too big and too loose. So we went to work and have fixed these issue so that desiccants are not able to move around and plate lids won’t slip in shipment. 🚚

We increased the seams on our bags, and decreased the length of the bags. You will notice the bags and labels are visibly different as well with a more sleek, easy-to-read look. With these slight changes, we are confident that you will love our AnaeroGRO™ media line even more!

⚠️Rest assured, all catalog numbers remain the same, as do all product validations and specifications.
