Case Study: TurtleTree Labs achieves a 41% reduction in data management time to rapidly scale clean milk production with Benchling

Decreasing Data Management Time by 41% to Rapidly Scale Clean Milk Production

TurtleTree Labs is a cell‑based dairy company working to reproduce milk components in the lab to make dairy and infant nutrition more efficient, safer, and widely accessible. Rapid growth exposed limits in their ad hoc data workflows—spreadsheets, emails, and siloed records made it hard for distributed R&D teams (Singapore and Pakistan) and executives to track progress, set timelines, and scale experiments reliably, creating an urgent need for a centralized, cloud‑based data system.

By adopting Benchling as a single system of record, TurtleTree standardized data capture, sharing, and reporting across sites, enabling scientists to present and access experiment notebooks and results in real time. The change cut time spent on data management by 41%, raised the quality of research data by 28%, and 4 out of 5 scientists reported faster collaboration, giving leaders a 360° view of projects and allowing the company to scale R&D more quickly and confidently.
