LAB ANIMAL SUPPLIES INC.

LAB ANIMAL SUPPLIES INC specializes in the manufacturing and supply of specialized laboratory animal bedding and enrichment products for biomedical research environments. Their core capabilities include the production of irradiated, heat-treated hardwood chip bedding designed to meet stringent sterility and dust-control standards required in controlled animal housing facilities. They also develop and deliver animal enrichment products, such as nesting materials, that support behavioral health and regulatory compliance in preclinical research settings. Technical expertise lies in precision wood processing, thermal and irradiation sterilization protocols, and material formulation tailored for rodent and small animal laboratories. Their unique differentiator is the integration of physical material science with animal welfare standards, ensuring products are not only hygienic and durable but also promote naturalistic behaviors in research subjects. The contractor maintains a consistent and focused relationship with the Department of Health and Human Services, delivering mission-critical supplies for animal care facilities across NIH, CDC, and other HHS-operated research centers. Their work supports institutional animal care and use protocols (IACUC), biosafety level compliance, and laboratory accreditation requirements under AAALAC guidelines. Primary industry focus centers on NAICS 311119 (other animal food manufacturing), where they produce consumable enrichment items, and 321999 (other miscellaneous wood product manufacturing), where they fabricate processed, sanitized wood-based bedding. This positions them as a niche supplier bridging animal care logistics and materials engineering within the biomedical research supply chain. LAB ANIMAL SUPPLIES INC is a small business headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, with no active federal certifications. Their operational footprint is centered on domestic manufacturing and distribution to federal research institutions, with no indication of international or commercial market activity. They serve as a reliable, specialized vendor within the government’s life sciences procurement ecosystem.
