In the front line of medical analysis
Given our aims to ensure smooth and efficient blood analysis wherever it is required, to express this commitment to our customers (and also the environment) we have adopted a new symbol. The Ginkgo biloba tree is believed to hold miraculous and hope-inspiring powers and convey the concepts of symbiosis and the collective good. Naturally, we at HORIBA ABX feel very closely aligned to this fascinating tree which also symbolises protection and a willingness to help others.
