Edmund Optics (EO), the leading manufacturer and provider of precision optical components for business, industry and biotech applications, has announced the expansion of its capabilities in Europe to meet growing needs throughout the continent.
Edmund Optics’ UK office has relocated into a newly-constructed 10,000 sq. ft. facility in York, UK, which allows the company to continue to offer world-class service, support and quick delivery to any point in Europe for its growing lines of EO designed and manufactured TECHSPEC® optics, imaging and photonics components. From this facility, all European shipments are sent from the East Midlands Airport to a distribution center in Cologne, Germany, providing customers with delivery by the next business day.
To support these efforts, Edmund Optics this month is delivering 270,000 copies of its new Precision Biotech Optics Catalog prepared in English, French, and for the first time, in German.
The new Biotech Optics catalog feature industrial optics products of direct interest to researchers and product developers working in the demanding biotech field. From DNA sequencing to microscopy to medical devices, EO’s extensive inventories of biotech optics are designed to provide tremendous value to R&D, industry and OEMs alike.
EO manufactures and stocks more than 21,000 off-the-shelf products for immediate delivery, including a selection that can rapidly address the most challenging biotech applications. The company also offers the capability to design and manufacture custom components through its extensive global production and manufacturing network.
EO designed and manufactured products include:
- Award-winning aspherized acromat lenses for high-precision focusing applications such as retinal photocoagulation,
- Broad-wavelength lens systems such as UV-NIR triplets, useful in two photon excitation microscopy, and
- Highly stable and sharp cutoff filters with high damage thresholds, such as ultra-sharp longpass filters for Raman spectroscopy.
