History
The company's first publication was Labmate UK & Ireland, a product card booklet for scientists and laboratory managers. It is still being read by laboratory scientists today and has evolved from its original format into a scientific journal containing product announcements, research and application articles, industry news stories and conference and exhibition reports. In 1996 it opened its first international office in Sydney, Australia. In 2002 the company expanded into conference and exhibition organisation with the launch of the MCERTS series of exhibitions with the Source Testing Association. In 2020 the company also moved into virtual and e-learning events.
