Medical technology company Hologic, Inc. and lab equipment supplier Inpeco S.A. have entered a partnership for Inpeco’s automation solution FlexLab X and Hologic’s Panther System in Europe.
“Through our co-marketing partnership with Inpeco, we are helping molecular laboratories take the next step in automation by connecting Hologic’s proven Panther System with Inpeco’s advanced automation technology,” said Vitor Rocha, CEO, Diagnostic Solutions at Hologic. “Together, we can help customers streamline workflows, increase throughput and enhance pre- and post-analytical sample traceability.”
Inpeco’s recently launched FlexLab X system enables laboratories to connect multiple Panther Systems. By combining Hologic’s fully automated molecular diagnostics platform with FlexLab X‘s open automation capabilities, laboratories can achieve high-throughput workflows with the potential to increase sample volumes and enhance end-to-end sample traceability, supporting reliable test results for optimal patient outcomes.
The Panther System will integrate into advanced, fully tracked automation environments, helping high‑throughput molecular laboratories work more efficiently and enhance productivity.
“At Inpeco, we see automation as a key driver of the future of laboratories, through fully automated, touchless and traceable diagnostic processes that begin outside the lab and extend inside,” said Riccardo Triunfo, CEO of Inpeco.
“As molecular testing expands, laboratories require solutions that can manage increasing complexity while maintaining performance and reliability. With over 30 years of experience in laboratory automation, we are proud to bring our expertise to this important field.”
