What do experts think about us? University of Silesia – Poland

Through these short conversations, we try to understand what our customers think about us. Today we are going to Katowice, Poland, to visit the Chair and Department of Biochemistry which is part of the Medical University of Silesia. They are using our Ultra-Low Temperature Freezers which have been provided by our local agent LABID S. C as part of the Silesia LabMed Project and are located in the Silesia LabMed Cooling Room in Zabrze-Rokitnica of the Medical University of Silesia. Prof. dr hab.n. med. Jolanta Zalejska-Fiolka working in the Department of Biochemistry was happy to share her feedback on our products with us.
