August 2010 – IKS International (Rosmalen, the Netherlands) has supplied all the sample storage and security equipment at the new BAHCECI Fulya IVF centre in Istanbul following a highly successful joint project with their Turkish distributors Gonagen. The package includes 17 controlled-atmosphere incubators (CO2/O2 and CO2) integrated with IKS’ state-of-the art XiltriX® monitoring, logging and alarm system.
Significant factors in the choice of the IKS triple-gas incubators were exceptional value for money and their very fast recovery times after door opening, providing a very stable environment for vulnerable samples. Equally important, however, was the added value provided by IKS’ expertise in laboratory monitoring and in managing projects to deliver complete laboratory solutions.
The Fulya IVF centre was established by the Bahceci group, a well-known organisation in this field in Turkey and surrounding countries. IKS equipment is also used in other, smaller laboratories in Turkey, Kosovo and Iraq.
Gonagen is a specialised distributor of hospital and medical laboratory equipment and is the sole distributor of IKS branded products in Turkey, Azerbaijan, Cyprus, Kosovo and Iraq. Han Weerdesteyn, IKS Product Manager said: “We are very happy to work with Gonagen to develop equipment and monitoring solutions. Their professional approach to handling projects like this is a formula for future success.”
