Opportunity overview

This contract covers the supply of Covaris consumables required to support laboratory and diagnostic activities.The consumables are proprietary to Covaris equipment and are specifically designed to be fully compatible with existing systems in use. Due to this proprietary nature, Covaris is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and the only supplier able to provide suitable consumables.
