Greifensee, Switzerland, November 9, 2016 – Mettler Toledo has launched its new Dubai Free Zone Competence Centre. This new facility will offer advanced analytical support for all industries operating in the Middle East and North Africa. It will also provide hands-on equipment training for Mettler Toledo’s range of products, which are designed to provide unparalleled accuracy while also saving time in busy labs and production environments.

This advanced support facility will result in process improvements that can enhance throughput and protect profits, said General Manager Jean-Claude Alder of Mettler Toledo Sales International GmbH. “For example, by improving analytical method parameters or advising clients to adjust their procedure, we can help ensure they’re meeting productivity, quality and regulatory goals in the most cost-effective way,” he advised.

Centre experts will cover all Mettler Toledo lab products - from its precision balances to its titrators and meters. Products specifically designed for samples characterization, such as moisture analyzers, UV/VIS spectrophotometer and thermal analyser, will also be available for demonstration and use.

“Analytical products such as these find application across many industries, including petrochemicals,” Mr Alder noted. “Additionally, certain Mettler Toledo technologies may be of particular importance to food and pharmaceutical producers at this time, as both industries are facing increasingly stringent regulatory climates,” he added.
