About The Science Source Company
The Science Source was established in 1986 with a few employees working out of an old automobile garage in Coopers Mills, Maine. Twenty four years later over 35 people are employed in a modern 18,000 sqft. plant in Waldoboro, Maine, on US Route 1. We are proud of the fact we manufacture innovative, quality, cost effective teaching materials in the USA. Over the years we have developed an excellent reputation for customer service and support. We market our products primarily through national and regional distributors and through our web site for those who prefer to deal directly with the manufacturer.
When we began the business our product line consisted of physics and physical science products under The Science Source brand for such well established curricula as, PSSC, Project Physics, and IPS. Later we expanded our product offering through the acquisition of recognized brand names:STACO for biology models, and DAEDALON and BECK, for high end physics apparatus. To complement our high end physics line we also offer select products from the German company, PHYWE. Our interest in the teaching of science in the early years led to our introducing design technology to elementary and middle schools across the US. Our LINX brand teaches problem solving through the use of real tools in constructing solutions to design challenges. Finally we have added significantly to the original Science Source brand through internal product development and through products developed by teachers and through partnerships in the informal science market.
