A global leader in bioanalytical testing, Eurofins Scientific, recently announced the acquisition of Spectro Analytical Labs, a leading environment, analytical product testing and inspection company in India.

The company has over 22 years of experience in quality testing and inspection-related services, and owns accreditations from the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) in six fields: Chemical, Mechanical, Biology, Non-destructive Testing, Calibration and Electrical and Electronics.

Starting from a small facility in New Delhi, Spectro has steadily achieved strong growth to become India’s leading environment and analytical laboratory with operations and joint ventures all over the country, catering to more than 8,000 customers.

The company operates 5 state-of-the-art laboratories in India, with a total surface area of ca. 10,000 m2, and employs close to 450 staff.

The acquisition of Spectro will enable Eurofins to have a strong environment and analytical testing market entry in India and significantly increase Eurofins’ market position in this geographical region.

This transaction is another demonstration of Eurofins’ commitment to expand its global network of analytical services laboratories across all geographical regions where it anticipates significant growth.
