Trusted Laboratory Resource Now Available in CD Version

NEW ORLEANS (March 3, 2008) – Fisher Scientific, part of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., today announced the release of its 2008-09 Fisher Scientific Catalog. The 2560-page hardbound catalog features a selection of 45,000 scientific and laboratory products from industry-leading manufacturers and Fisher Scientific specialty brands, including accumet, Isotemp and Fisherbrand.

Since it was first published in the early 1900s, the Fisher Scientific Catalog has become a trusted resource for every laboratory. The new catalog maintains that long-standing tradition, but has an updated layout tailored to the preferences of today’s scientists.

To support its ongoing green sustainability business initiatives and those of its customers, the Fisher Scientific Catalog is also available in an electronic version for the first time. The CD contains all the products in the print version, runs on an individual computer or network and features convenient, direct-from-page ordering.

“This new edition and CD deliver the latest products used in scientific research in the way our customers told us they want to learn about them, making it a better, more user-friendly tool,” said Doug Zalla, vice president, global strategy and marketing for the Fisher Scientific Catalog. “This is one more way we are fulfilling the promise of our Fisher Scientific premier brand, which offers choice and convenience for our customers.”

Updated features include comparative product tables, expanded life science product sections, guides to assist with product selection and keyword search suggestions for exploring the more than 600,000 products on www.fishersci.com.
