Calibre scientific acquires Benson Polymeric
Calibre Scientific is pleased to announce the acquisition of Benson Polymeric, a manufacturer of polymer-based HPLC columns and resin. Benson Polymeric further enhances Calibre Scientific’s growing presence in the chromatography sector.
Founded in 1986 and based in Reno, Nevada, Benson Polymeric offers several types of polymeric exclusion columns for the analysis of carbohydrates, organic acids, and alcohols. Company’s columns are highly versatile, as they are used for a broad set of applications ranging from food and beverage to biofuel analysis.
“The addition of Benson Polymeric product suite to the Calibre Scientific portfolio presents interesting growth opportunities for both businesses,” said Ron Jones, President, Concise Separations. “Benson Polymeric will be able to broaden its product offering by leveraging Calibre Scientific’s extensive chromatography product portfolio positioning it to better serve its customer base.
