CLADE

Results at the speed of excellence: Effective Chemical Analytics is critical to safeguarding quality across life science applications. And speed, accuracy and reproducibility are of the essence in all areas. Which is why we have completely rethought chemical analytics as a service, a unique combination of chemometrics and state of the art spectroscopic technology. Or to sum it up in a few words: better quality results, faster. Founded in 2001 as micro-biolytics GmbH, our company has over two decades’ experience in consulting and the development of MIR based services. While much has changed over the years, including our name, our approach has remained constant in two regards. First, we always question the status quo and, second, we consistently go above and beyond what our customers expect of us.
