Your BioRAFT.com Instance is Changing to SciShield.com

As you know, BioRAFT has been rebranded and is now SciShield. The SciShield name embodies our mission to provide scientists and scientific organizations with the solutions required to maintain safe and productive laboratories.

As part of the rebranding, your BioRAFT.com instance will change to SciShield.com. Rest assured, your previous BioRAFT.com address will remain active and redirect users to the new SciShield domain name for an extended period. Users will be able to access the application using both BioRAFT.com and SciShield.com URLs.

We are here to help you with the process and have provided the information below to support you through this transition. Additionally, our team is here to answer any questions you may have.
