Following successful discussions at Arab Health 2012, IKS International (Rosmalen, the Netherlands) has secured its first major contract in the UAE, to supply a XiltriX® laboratory monitoring system to an IVF laboratory in Dubai. According to IKS Managing Director Stephen Tierney, a recommendation from an existing Xiltrix user in Belgium was instrumental in securing the contract. 

"This is how we like to grow our business," said Tierney, "by building on our expanding user base of satisfied customers. The UAE is focusing on healthcare at the present time, and we hope to conclude another significant contract in Abu Dhabi in the near future. Furthermore we will soon be opening our own office in the UAE, to further expand our activity in this growing market and to confirm our commitment to supporting these new customers."

IKS International has over 20 years' experience in laboratory monitoring and has an extensive user base in major hospitals, biomedical laboratories and IVF clinics.  Systems can be tailored to customers' individual needs and supplied to monitor a single incubator, a complete laboratory or an entire building with thousands of individual sensors. IKS also offer consultancy and validation services to assist clients with specifying and developing their monitoring solutions.
