Singapore: German company Eppendorf, a leading provider of high quality products and applications support to the life science community, has opened its UK headquarters.

"The purchase and custom-fitting out of the UK headquarters represents a major investment for Eppendorf and really underpins our belief in, and commitment to, the quality and dynamism of science in the UK," said Dr Dirk Ehlers, President and CEO, Eppendorf AG.

"The move from previous premises in St Albans and Cambridge is the culmination of several years' work including the successful integration in 2011 of Eppendorf UK and New Brunswick Scientific UK, following Eppendorf AG's acquisition of New Brunswick in 2007. We have now brought the teams from both of the UK organisations together under one roof in a conveniently located, state-of-the-art facility that provides everything necessary to deliver expert customer service and support across the UK and Ireland."
