WHAT IS STOCKROOM-IN-THE-CLOUD
Buy what you need, when you need it
Stockroom-in-the-Cloud is Direct2Lab's digital supply model for routine laboratory consumables.
Instead of building a large physical stockroom or searching across thousands of similar products, your team gets a focused online source for the supplies used across everyday research workflows.
Browse a curated selection, choose the pack size that fits your current need, place the order online, and return whenever it is time to replenish.
Stockroom-in-the-Cloud is not an inventory management software. It is a more practical way to access, purchase, and restock everyday laboratory supplies.

WHY SMALL AND FLEXIBLE PACKS
A more practical way to buy routine consumables
Small packs are not simply products packaged differently. They are a more flexible procurement model designed to help laboratories match each purchase to actual demand, commit less budget upfront, carry fewer units before use, and replenish as workflows evolve.
Match Actual Usage
Choose S, M, or L based on burn rate, project needs, and expected reorder frequency.
Spend Less Upfront
Commit less budget in the initial purchase while preserving access to the required specification.
Carry Fewer Units
Reduce the quantity that must be received, stored, tracked, and consumed before needs change.
Scale with Demand
Start practical, validate product fit, and move to larger packs as usage becomes predictable.
Flexible Pack Economics
Buy less upfront, store less before use
Matched flexible packs can reduce the initial purchase size and the number of units a lab needs to receive, store, and track.
