## Summary

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured four BINDER CB170 CO₂ incubators for use in its healthcare and laboratory operations. The purchase included stacking adaptors and bases fitted with castors, so the requirement covered both the incubator units and specified supporting equipment. This is a goods supply contract for laboratory incubators, classified under CPV 33152000. Delivery is within the United Kingdom, with the buying organisation based at Hills Road, Cambridge. The requirement is focused on supplying a defined quantity of a named incubator model together with compatible accessories, rather than providing a general laboratory equipment or maintenance service.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold tender route. It comprised one completed lot covering the four incubators and associated equipment. LABCOLD LIMITED was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 and runs from 4 September 2026 to 3 December 2026. Its value is £34,946 excluding VAT and £41,935.20 including VAT. The contract is recorded as active. The available procurement information identifies the route as below threshold, but does not set out an evaluation weighting or detailed award criteria. The requirement therefore provides a clear example of a completed, single-lot purchase of specialist laboratory incubators by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

This award shows demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for specialist CO₂ incubators supplied as a complete equipment package, including stacking adaptors and mobile bases. Businesses best placed for a future requirement would be manufacturers, authorised distributors or laboratory equipment suppliers able to provide the specified BINDER CB170 model or meet an equivalent technical requirement, together with compatible accessories. Credibility would depend on reliable supply of the required equipment and the ability to support a defined hospital laboratory purchase rather than offering unrelated general goods. LABCOLD LIMITED, identified as an SME supplier, demonstrates that a specialist small business can satisfy this type of NHS equipment requirement through the stated below-threshold tender route.
