Spheryx, Inc

Midtown East has its share of specialized suppliers, and among them is a quiet resource for labs and research teams. Spheryx, Inc operates from a modest unit at 330 E 38th St #48j, just steps from the FDR Drive and a quick walk from Grand Central.

This isn’t the kind of storefront that draws foot traffic; it’s the kind that serves institutions and startups needing precise instruments. Scientific equipment suppliers in the city often cluster near universities and hospitals, and Spheryx fits neatly into that niche. The address places it within easy reach of NYU Langone, Rockefeller University, and several biotech incubators along the East River.

Those who need to order or consult can reach the office at (607) 738-0100. A call ahead is usually best, since the focus is on custom setups rather than walk-in sales. The team handles everything from microscopes to spectrometers, though specifics are best confirmed directly.

For anyone mapping the route, directions are available here. It’s the sort of place that doesn’t advertise—just delivers what labs actually need.
