Milexia announces the opening of a new business line with the agreement reached with Hitachi High-Tech Europe, a leading manufacturer in the Scientific Instrumentation market.

This agreement further reinforces the Group's position as Europe's leading value-added technology distributor. For almost 40 years, Milexia France has been distributing and maintaining scientific equipment in France, French-speaking Belgium, Luxembourg, French-speaking Switzerland, and occasionally in the Maghreb countries, and now Milexia Iberica will be able to offer the same to its customers in Spain.

Fulfilling part of the Group's growth plan, Milexia Iberica expands its presence in new markets such as Scientific Instrumentation with specialized products for electron microscopy and ion milling techniques as well as excellent customer service, local technical and after-sales support, a full warranty, and spare parts for times when problems arise.

Commenting on the new business unit, Julian Montalvo Mata, Sales Director at Milexia Iberica, said "With the opening of a Scientific Instrumentation unit, our customers can enjoy access to a wide range of specialist products and all the expertise that Milexia is renowned for. We are delighted to be working with the talented team at Hitachi High-Tech Europe and look forward to the added value that our collaboration will bring to our customers." "Collaborating with a value-added distributor like Milexia makes everything faster and easier. Together, we are looking forward to delivering cutting-edge Scientific Instrumentation solutions and strengthening our partnership." said Hitoshi IIDA - Head of Sales & distributor Business Europe - Hitachi High Tech Europe
