In keeping with the strategy of the Dutscher group, all group companies leverage their respective strengths to the benefit of their customers and gain access to a larger product portfolio from many of the leading European and Global brands. Further benefits to the laboratory supply chain will be delivered through shared best practice on marketing and logistics, creating real value for clients and suppliers alike.

The group is well known for the quality of its service and technical support, the close relationship it maintains with customers and its capability to deliver through an extensive inventory and class-leading logistics capability. Bringing AH diagnotics into the Dutscher family of companies will strengthen the position of the group in the Nordic countries and it will also allow us to share best practice whilst investing in new opportunities. We are particularly excited about the extension of our group activities in the Nordic region and the geographical reach that this change will bring. »
«AH diagnostics has for more than 20 years been working with the Dutscher company and we see this integration of AH diagnostics as an outstanding opportunity to get access to and benefit from being part of a large international organization while keeping the Danish organization as it is »

In this context, the group is exploring additional acquisitions and partnerships designed to further broaden its geographical coverage and the range of it's products and services available to laboratory customers.
