Physics, chemistry, biology & technical lab equipment for secondary schools, VETA/NACTVET colleges, universities and Ministry projects across Tanzania — manufactured in Ambala, shipped to Dar es Salaam. TBS/PVoC-ready, factory prices, no middleman.
Atico Scientific is a direct laboratory equipment manufacturer, supplier and exporter to Tanzania. We've built science and technical lab equipment in Ambala, India for over 70 years, and today a steady share ships to Tanzanian secondary schools, VETA and NACTVET colleges, universities and Ministry projects — into Dar es Salaam, at factory prices with no local reseller.
Tanzania moved to a Competency-Based Curriculum, and the Tanzania Institute of Education (TIE) keeps updating the secondary science syllabi while NECTA assesses the practicals — CSEE at Form IV and ACSEE at Form VI.
Competency assessment means students must run experiments themselves, so schools need class-sized apparatus, glassware and microscopes rather than one shared demonstration set.
Secondary education is moving to parallel academic and vocational streams — both need properly equipped labs and workshops, which widens the equipment demand.

A large part of Tanzania's lab equipment moves through Ministry and PO-RALG programmes and donor-funded projects (World Bank, BADEA), all under Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) rules. As a direct manufacturer we map specs to your BOQ, give OEM factory pricing, and handle conformity documents and export logistics.
