UK nanotech firm sets sights on US market
UK-based nanoparticle characterisation company NanoSight has opened a US office base in New Jersey.
The company, which supplies instruments for optical and LM10 systems from its Salisbury base, will share its new US facilities with XiGo Nanotools – a company applying NMR technology for nanoparticle characterisation. The expansion to the US is expected to provide the company with local sales, applications and service support to their growing family of users.
“Nanoparticle characterisation is becoming critical in many processes,’” said NanoSight’s ceo Jeremy Warren. “However, it is in the field of nanotoxicology where the demand for our instrumentation is growing the fastest as researchers want to increase their knowledge of materials performance on the nanoscale.”
The office is located in Morganville, New Jersey approximately 25 miles from Newark’s Liberty Airport.
