McAllister Technical Services was founded in Berkeley, California in 1981. At that time, most scientific equipment was over-priced and not really flexible enough to meet science’s ever changing needs. From the very first day, our objective has been to offer the scientific community an alternative to that inflexibility. Our goal has been to offer top quality, really innovative scientific equipment, custom devices and gizmos at a fair price. The scientific community agreed for we have expanded. As we grew, the goal has always been Service(s), just like the name. In the summer of 1990, McAllister moved to beautiful Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. We are here to serve the scientific community. We do this by providing high quality products at affordable prices. We are also dedicated to maintaining the leading edge of technology development. Our reputation is based on this. Perhaps one of the greatest services we provide is the one-on-one contact between the customer and our top design and technical consultants. We are famous for our ability to help with customers’ engineering and design problems. Because we are relatively small and have not outgrown our original objectives, we are able to customize products in a way no larger manufacturer is able to do. This is what makes our job interesting. This is what we love to do. We are here to serve. The watchwords are “Innovation, Service, Quality and Affordability.”
