LEAC-Nestlé prides itself on meeting ISO/IEC 17025 year after year – the main quality standard used by testing and calibration laboratories worldwide. To accomplish this, the Ecuador-based laboratory relies on its partner, Merck, for analytical reagents, solvents, and lab supplies as well as the services to match. Not only are products of premium quality, notes Dr. Ramiro Valarezo, head of LEAC-Nestlé, but they’re available whenever needed. This helps LEAC-Nestlé stay flexible.

The partnership with Merck has also uncovered ways for LEAC-Nestlé to perfect its processes. First-rate products save the laboratory time and money, and Merck is on board in the early planning stages – and is always just a phone call away, Valarezo adds.
