easyLab acquires DAC leader Diacell
April 26th, 2006
easyLab Technologies Ltd. (easyLab) announces that it has acquired Diacell
Products Ltd. (Diacell), the world leader in the supply of diamond anvil
cells for high-pressure research. easyLab will use the technology and
intellectual property assets from the acquisition to provide the scientific
community with a complete range of tools to further enable science under
pressure.
"Diamond anvil cells have a long-established history in high-pressure
research. No other company can claim to know these cells better than Diacell.”,
said Marcio Siqueira, easyLab Director. "Through this acquisition,
we're extremely excited to be able to provide scientists with a comprehensive
product line of pressure cells, covering applications such as optical,
x-ray, magnetic and transport techniques."
Dr. David M. Adams, the founder of Diacell Products Ltd, is retiring
but will remain on board as a consultant, whilst his co-Director, Mr.
Roger Appleyard (Design and Production), has joined easyLab.
“Drs. Siqueira and Thessieu (easyLab’s principals) have themselves
founded and built a successful business, and have a background in cryogenics
and high pressure techniques. They have the vision, knowledge of the worldwide
scientific community, and energy that makes them ideally-suited to take
Diacell on to the next phase of development.”, said Dr. Adams.
The acquisition of Diacell by easyLab should be seamless to existing
customers, as they will continue to receive the same high-quality customer
support. easyLab are currently working on a revised version of its website
which will include all pressure cells in its product portfolio and this
should go live soon.
About easyLab:
