SynTech Research establishes branch in China

Date:10-07-2013

SynTech has announced the registration of a new facility in China. This is located at Hainan Institute of Tropical Agricultural Resources, Chengxi, Yacheng Town, Sanya City, Hainan Province, with a satellite facility in Shaoxing County, Zhejiang province. The Chinese team will conduct GLP (Import Tolerance), GMO and bioefficacy (GEP) studies.

The establishment of SynTech’s China facility brings the number of countries where the Company operates to 29. It now has extensive coverage in the US, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America, with multiple field testing sites in the most important territories e.g. the US, France, Spain and Japan. Laboratory as well as field facilities have been established in all these territories, the most recent being the Ecotoxicology and Analytical laboratories in Stilwell, Kansas.

Much of SynTech’s recent and ongoing expansion has been in response to strong demand for its seeds testing services, for both conventional and GM lines. The new China facility adds significantly to this capability.
