VINELAND, NJ / ACCESS Newswire / September 29, 2025 / Astraglass Innovations, a leading North American manufacturer of precision scientific glassware, and Scalables, the pioneer behind the Daisy modular lab-automation platform, announced a strategic collaboration to deliver a next-generation bioreactor system that combines Astraglass's advanced vessels with Scalables' AI-driven controller technology.
This AI-enabled, modular bioreactor platform is designed to help pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies accelerate discovery, streamline operations, and reduce costs. By combining Astraglass's precision-engineered vessels with Daisy's snap-together automation hardware and adaptive AI software, the system offers real-time optimization, predictive insights, and effortless scalability-from benchtop experiments to pilot-scale manufacturing.
"Traditional bioreactors rely on programmable controllers for managing temperature, agitation, gas flow, pH, and nutrient feeds," said Dr. Subu Natesan, CEO of Astraglass Innovations. "But they still require constant human oversight and lack the ability to learn. By integrating Scalables' digital control systems, we're bringing AI-powered automation into the labs of the future."
Dr. Hür Köser, Founder and CEO of Scalables, added: "Scalables exists to remove experimentation bottlenecks. Teaming with Astraglass lets us extend our Daisy architecture to bioreactors, giving scientists an intelligent, drop-in upgrade path that scales seamlessly from research to production."
The platform addresses a critical challenge in pharma and biotech: how to replicate experiments reliably while scaling them efficiently and cost-effectively. With AI-enabled adaptive control and modular hardware, researchers can improve reproducibility, accelerate timelines, and de-risk the transition from discovery to manufacturing.
Biopharma industry leader Stephen Grant, who has worked with both companies, sees the partnership as a timely innovation for the sector: "Both Astraglass and Scalables are thinking outside the box, bringing independent technologies together to create a new and innovative way to run bioreactor-based processes. It's a breakthrough that could redefine how R&D and manufacturing teams operate."
