Lab M to extend range of products after move

Lab M has announced plans to extend the range of products it supplies after completing its move to a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Heywood, Greater Manchester.

At a meeting to welcome the Lab M teams to their new base, chairman Colin Goodwillie praised the company's employees for completing the move as efficiently as possible.

He singled out new managing director Ian Morris, who "masterminded many of the critical stages", for particular credit.

Following this exciting 12 months, Lab M will be able to continue operating to the highest industry standards while extending its product range, Mr Goodwillie added.

"Our customers benefit from the expertise we bring together in housing R&D, manufacturing, technical and commercial operations under one roof," the chairman concluded.

This follows on from the company's release of a further range for its Captivate antibody-coated paramagnetic particles, which are used for the immunomagnetic separation of micro-organisms.
