Founded in the mid-1970s as a collective of scientists committed to developing innovative products for the life sciences industry, New England Biolabs is now a recognized world leader in the discovery and production of enzymes for molecular biology applications.

New England Biolabs – putting science first
Created “by scientists for scientists”, NEB is renowned for consistently providing exceptional product quality and unsurpassed technical support. For over four decades, NEB has been shaping the landscape of bioscience research by discovering, developing and supporting superior research reagents. From our founding principles – placing the advancement of science and the stewardship of the environment as our highest priorities – to our unique corporate culture, NEB’s philosophy can be distilled down to three core values: passion, humility and being genuine.

A supplier-of-choice for scientists across the globe, NEB offers the largest selection of recombinant and native enzymes for genomic research. While restriction enzymes remain part of our core product portfolio, our ever-expanding catalog also includes products related to PCR, gene expression, sample preparation for next generation sequencing, synthetic biology, glycobiology, epigenetics and RNA analysis. Additionally, NEB is focused on strengthening alliances that enable new technologies to reach key market sectors, including molecular diagnostics development.

NEB is committed to practicing ethical science. NEB is registered as a small business with the United States Small Business Administration.

Life at NEB

The NEB culture emphasizes personal and professional growth through creativity, teamwork, respect and responsibility, while maintaining a casual campus-like working environment. Our diverse and talented team of scientists enjoy a collaborative research environment with much of the freedom and intellectual challenge of academia. Our unique corporate philosophy encourages dialogue and innovation. In addition, NEB has always been an environmentally and socially responsible company.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
New England Biolabs, Inc. (NEB) stands with those who are passionate about shining a harsh light on injustice and building a more equitable society. Deep-rooted racial inequities and systemic discrimination against the Black community must be acknowledged by all of us. Black lives matter, and we have a moral obligation to embrace this fundamental truth and bridge the divide to help make the world a better place. Furthermore, we recognize that Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and other marginalized groups experience discrimination and inequities in ways that are egregious and painfully routine in the life science industry and STEM disciplines.

NEB is committed to continually assess its role in advancing racial justice and equity within our company, the life sciences industry and our broader community. We are guided by the core values of passion, humility, and being genuine. We strive to have a diverse culture that encourages open communication and inclusive behaviors which affords everyone at NEB an opportunity to have a voice into how we address these complex issues. With this in mind, we have formed a diverse, employee-driven team to develop and manage a detailed and accountable plan to put our passion into practice.
