UKTI Arranges Royal Visitor for Camlab

Posted: Friday 20th April 2007

Camlab Ltd, the laboratory supplies company based at Over, Cambridge, received a Royal visitor yesterday (19 April 2007) HRH the Duke of Kent. The visit was arranged by UKTI (UK Trade & Investment), the UK Government organisation formed to promote innovation and export growth by UK companies, as part of a tour of companies in the Cambridge area.

The Duke toured the Camlab facility and saw the modernisation that has transformed the company’s warehousing, logistics and customer support activities, as well as developments in internet-based business.

In addition to distributing its own and many other leading brands in the science industries, Camlab has its own manufacturing business for laboratory plastics that prides itself on innovative designs. Among the new products seen by the royal visitor was a range of unique “tamper proof” sample vessels used in testing for drugs of abuse in sport. These incorporate security indicator rings that instantly reveal if the bottle has been tampered with or opened prior to or after sampling. The first production batch has been shipped to the HFL Ltd in Newmarket.
