Royston, UK (20th January 2010) – Dolomite, a world leader in microfluidic design and manufacture, reported exceptional growth in 2009, doubling its year on year turnover, with a significant improvement in profitability. With numerous new product launches throughout the year, Dolomite has been able to provide both standard solutions and custom designs for microfluidic devices, sub-systems and instrumentation. Furthermore, 2010 shows great promise with an expanded team, including two recently appointed European Business Development Managers, and an increasing demand from existing and new sectors. Andrew Lovatt, newly-appointed CEO, commented, “Microfluidics is becoming increasingly important in many sectors and Dolomite’s offerings cover everything from standard devices to complete bespoke instrumentation development. As a result, we are uniquely positioned to assist our clients in maximising their success in this exciting new market.”
Having launched six new products, including the Mitos XS-pump and the Mitos P-Pump (pressure) for extra smooth flow, as well as eight new standard micro-fluidic devices such as the Y-junction Chip and the Mitos Droplet Junction Chip, Dolomite is rapidly increasing its product range to meet user requirements. With an extended range of production processes, Dolomite has mastered the optimisation of quartz microfluidic chip fabrication.
