LabWare and Phizzle announced LabWare Loop, a vendor-agnostic product that connects scientific instruments to LabWare LIMS, available by request as development continues toward commercial availability in early 2027. [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/labware-and-phizzle-introduce-labware-loop-to-connect-lab-instruments-directly-to-lims-302921425.html) published the announcement on October 27, 2026.

## How LabWare Loop Moves Instrument Data

[LabWare](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/003vtc3/labware) and [Phizzle](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0002h8o/phizzle) said LabWare Loop carries each GxP sample from sampling plan to result in one auditable digital workflow. The workflow supports 21 CFR Part 11, EU Annex 11 and ALCOA+ data integrity principles. In a Loop workflow, an operator runs one or more tests based on the LabWare worklist, and the Phizzle Edge Puck captures the instrument's data file along with instrument-generated metadata. Phizzle Connected Plant then routes the file to LabWare with verifiable lineage and chain of custody, and results populate the LabWare sample results records automatically.

The Edge Puck connects via USB, serial or Ethernet, so LabWare Loop works with legacy and modern instruments without firmware changes or requalification, according to the companies. LabWare said the product replaces paper printouts, manual entry, USB transfers and custom per-device integrations with a single connection that isolates instruments from the network. [Third News](https://third-news.com/article/3449b984-d265-11f1-b703-9ca3ba08e13f) described the Edge Puck as the capture device behind the automated data flow and said the product aims to reduce manual transcription errors and improve operational efficiency.

Kyle Kershner, Co-CEO at LabWare, said: "LabWare Loop extends that reach to any instrument, legacy or modern, without custom integration work, automatically linking worklists directly to benchtop instruments, thus removing manual transcription from GxP workflows, and with it, a major source of data integrity risk." Ben Davis, CEO of Phizzle, said: "With LabWare Loop, regulated manufacturers and laboratories can digitize the full sampling lifecycle without exposing benchtop instruments to network threats."

## LabWare's Earlier Phizzle Partnership

LabWare and Phizzle announced a partnership in April 2026 to integrate the Edge Puck gateway device with LabWare LIMS, eliminating manual data transfer for environmental monitoring instruments in pharmaceutical cleanroom labs, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The same records describe LabWare as a privately held laboratory informatics provider founded in 1985 and headquartered in Wilmington, with a headcount range of 501 to 1,000. LabWare states that more than 30,000 laboratories use its software.

## Demonstration Requests for LabWare Loop

LabWare and Phizzle are taking requests for a technical demonstration and for integration specifications through a page on Phizzle's website. The companies said commercial availability of LabWare Loop is expected in early 2027.
