Our Company

Federal Laboratories is led by a mother–daughter team grounded in legacy, continuity, and care. Together, they guide the company’s evolution while honoring the scientific foundation on which it was built. Their leadership balances experience with fresh perspective, ensuring thoughtful decision-making across generations. This approach reflects a commitment to responsible science, long-term stewardship, and independent, family-led operation.

Federal Laboratories LLC is a privately held, family-owned company organized as a limited liability company in the State of Ohio. We operate under the names Federal Laboratories and/or FederaLabs, with the latter reflecting a unified visual identity. The company is led by a first- and second-generation team operating as bootstrapped solopreneurs, combining operational independence with shared stewardship. Our structure emphasizes clarity, accountability, and long-term responsibility over complexity or scale.

Policies & Practices

At Federal Laboratories, our policies and practices reflect how we choose to operate—not just what we do, but how we do it. As a family-owned laboratory rooted in legacy science, we believe responsibility, care, and transparency are essential to meaningful work. Our approach prioritizes people, pets, and the environments they share. These principles guide our decisions, conduct, and long-term stewardship.

Purpose & Values

Federal Laboratories exists to apply science thoughtfully and responsibly to real-world needs. Our values emphasize care, integrity, and restraint—balancing effectiveness with safety and respect for living systems. We believe science should serve households and communities, not abstract metrics or unchecked scale. Every decision is informed by this purpose.

Responsible Formulation Practices

We develop formulations using conservative chemistry and evidence-informed practices. Ingredient selection, testing, and use guidance are approached with care for people, animals, and shared environments. We avoid unnecessary complexity and unsupported claims. Our goal is practical effectiveness without compromising safety or trust.

Ethics & Transparency

We are committed to honest communication, ethical conduct, and clear boundaries around what our products do and do not do. Claims are grounded in science and experience, not exaggeration. We hold ourselves accountable to users, partners, and the communities we serve. Transparency is a responsibility, not a marketing strategy.

Environmental & Safety Standards

Our practices consider long-term environmental impact alongside immediate performance. We strive to reduce waste, minimize unnecessary harm, and make choices that respect shared ecosystems. Safety—for users, animals, and handlers—is central to how products are designed, labeled, and used. Sustainability is approached as an ongoing responsibility, not a fixed endpoint.

Governance & Accountability

Federal Laboratories LLC is a privately held, family-owned company organized in the State of Ohio. Our structure emphasizes clarity, accountability, and independence. Leadership decisions are made with long-term continuity in mind rather than short-term scale. As a small organization, responsibility is direct, personal, and shared.

Questions or Concerns

We welcome thoughtful questions, feedback, and dialogue related to our practices. If you have concerns or would like additional information, we encourage you to contact us directly. Open communication is part of responsible science.

The Archives section reflects Federal Laboratories’ commitment to continuity, institutional memory, and long-term responsibility. As a family-owned laboratory, we believe that preserving context, decisions, and historical reference is part of thoughtful scientific practice. This space exists to acknowledge the value of record-keeping without emphasizing volume or formal reporting.

Our archives are maintained internally and evolve alongside the company’s work. They encompass historical references, operational milestones, formulation philosophies, and governance context that inform present-day decisions. Rather than functioning as a public document repository, this section represents an ongoing commitment to reflection, accountability, and care.

Federal Laboratories approaches documentation as a living process rather than a static collection. The Archives serve as a conceptual record of how the company thinks, grows, and adapts over time. This perspective supports transparency, responsible stewardship, and long-term continuity across generations.

Federal Laboratories approaches recognition as a reflection of care, consistency, and responsibility rather than a primary goal. As a small, family-owned laboratory, our focus remains on doing the work well—applying science thoughtfully, ethically, and with long-term intent. Recognition, when it occurs, is viewed as acknowledgment of disciplined practice, integrity, and trust earned over time. We see awards not as endpoints, but as markers along an ongoing journey of responsible science.
