Tecan opens new Asia Pacific headquarters

Tecan, the Swiss supplier of laboratory instruments and solutions for the biopharma, forensic and diagnostic industries, has opened its new Asia Pacific region headquarters, based in Shanghai's pharmaceutical and life science centre.

The new Asia Pacific headquarters in Shanghai will now sell directly to many of the major multinational biotechnology, pharmaceutical and diagnostic companies based in this rapidly developing area. Tecan's long-established Beijing operations will maintain close regional relationships with its customers in China.

Similarly, a well-established network of distributors will continue to cover the Asia Pacific region as before, including after-sales support. Tecan will also be able to support its distributors in these efforts by providing training, warehousing of spare parts and improved services out of Shanghai.
