quality traceable product portfolio
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Micronic
Holding BV, a leading manufacturer of innovative sample storage
tubes and accessories based in Lelystad, The Netherlands, today
announced the launch of Micronic America, the new supporting entity for
the company’s traceable product portfolio in the U.S. and Canada.
Micronic America will operate in conjunction with Micronic Manufacturing
USA, Micronic’s U.S.-based production facility, to efficiently produce
and provide its distributor network with industry-leading sample storage
solutions.
“Micronic is deeply committed to its distributor network in North
America by providing superior products, and the launch of Micronic
America, combined with the backing of more than 25 years of leadership
in the industry, enhances our ability to deliver on that promise,” said
Gerrit van der Gaag, CEO at Micronic Holding BV. “Producing sample
storage tubes, caps and racks domestically with our manufacturing
facility enables us to ensure the integrity of materials and processes
throughout every step of production and will improve turnaround times
for distributors.”
Located within a Keystone Innovation Zone in the Philadelphia, PA
region, Micronic America supports the sales and marketing of North
America while working in conjunction with the company’s adjacent
manufacturing plant, which boasts a Class 7 cleanroom environment.
Beyond ensuring quality and product consistency, Micronic uses a
proprietary laser etching system to imprint barcodes directly onto
sample racks and a unique 2D
Data-Matrix code on the bottom of each tube for simplified and
durable sample identification.
Distributors supported by Micronic America in the United States and
Canada include E&K Scientific, USA Scientific, Nova Biostorage Plus
(formerly Micronic North America), MJS Biolynx and D-Mark Biosciences.
“This expansion not only represents our investment in U.S. operations,
but is also symbolic of a larger corporate investment in manufacturing
and production enhancements, including the construction of a
state-of-the-art cleanroom facility and system innovations at our home
office that will significantly improve productivity,” added van der Gaag.
