Eurofins Analytico
July 2011 - News from the director
The year 2011 is a remarkable year for our company Eurofins Analytico in many ways. After a redesign of the laboratory following the integration of other facilities into our head office we have now established a well designed integrated laboratory facility of more than 7500 m². Furthermore we have started a program called ‘One-IT’. The Eurofins Group is currently accelerating the deployment of standard processes and systems across its Laboratories via the One IT program. On top of that, despite a seasonally quiet period in the beginning of the year, we had our first half year with significant sales growth, after a difficult period since the economic downturn.
Eurofins Group also acquired recently Lancaster laboratories in the USA. Lancaster is one of the largest and most reputable environmental testing laboratories in the USA. It has a solid reputation for excellence in service quality and reliability. Lancaster’s strong position and reputation for top quality service in environmental testing in the USA fits well with Eurofins’ strategy of being the global market leader with a focus on providing high quality services to large global corporations.
We have we experienced an overall up-lift of business activities and in particular in South European countries like Spain and Italy. Also some East European countries like Poland are showing growth of their environmental activities resulting in bigger testing volumes from those countries.
During the recent months we have put a lot of effort in new method developments. Amongst others the most remarkable ones are a total renewed analytical platform for PAH and PCB analysis and an upgrade of our TerrAttesT sample kit.
The current year has already been a year of success. With our commitment to the core areas of analytical testing and support services with a strong personal touch, Eurofins Analytico will ensure that its position and your position as a customer at the forefront of the international environmental market is further cemented.
