Gardner Denver medical acquires tricontinent scientific
August 9, 2016
Gardner Denver’s Medical Group, a leader in flow control solutions primarily for medical and laboratory sectors, announced the closing of its acquisition of TriContinent Scientific, Inc.
Headquartered in Grass Valley, California, U.S., TriContinent Scientific is a leading manufacturer of OEM precision syringe pumps and a supplier to the world’s leading medical and biotechnology diagnostic and analytics equipment manufacturers. In addition to offering customized products tailored to customer needs, TriContinent Scientific offers five product lines: precision pumps, valves and syringes, XYZ robotics, microplate washers and manifolds, as well as pipettes and dispensers.
“The technology and portfolio of TriContinent Scientific is a perfect strategic fit for Gardner Denver’s Medical Group. With the addition of both a fantastic team and product set to our business, we are now able to extend our customer offerings to include liquid handling systems,” said Patrick Bennett, CEO of Gardner Denver?s Medical Group.
Gardner Denver plans to integrate TriContinent Scientific’s business and products under the name TriContinent. Adding TriContinent Scientific’s core competencies in syringe pumps and liquid handling robots for the lab automation market will enable Gardner Denver to offer complete solutions from a single source to its OEM and laboratory customers, giving the company a significant competitive edge.
“With Gardner Denver, we have found a strong partner that shares our mission and our vision,” said Lee Carter, CEO of TriContinent Scientific. “By accessing the longstanding distribution network of our new owner, we will be able to supply our highly sophisticated pumps and robots to an even broader, global customer base,” Carter said.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
