Delfin Technologies and Teledyne LABS collaborate to bring savings and value to mutual diffusion customers
May 14, 2024
Kuopio, Finland – Delfin Technologies and Teledyne LABS, a United States producer of scientific laboratory instruments used worldwide in research, development and quality control, are collaborating to bring value and cost reductions to the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, academic research and development communities performing skin permeation tests.
Barrier integrity tests are crucial in in-vitro permeation testing (IVPT) to assess the integrity of the skin barrier. This is typically done by measuring parameters such as trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). TEWL refers to the amount of water that passes through the epidermis and evaporates from the skin surface. It serves as a valuable indicator of skin barrier function.
Under the terms of the collaboration, Teledyne LABS will give a 5 percent discount on its Teledyne Hanson brand of diffusion cell systems to all Delfin Technologies customers. Delfin Technologies will give a 10 percent discount on their TEWL device, the VapoMeter, to all Teledyne Hanson diffusion customers. The offer is extended through the end of 2025.
Bruna Lousada, Teledyne Hanson’s sales and marketing manager in Europe, said the two companies share high regulatory, ethical and safety standards. “Teledyne LABS designs and manufactures instruments used to create healthier people in a better world,” Lousada said. “Delfin Technologies shares our desire to provide the ultimate in product quality and service excellence.”
Jaakko Hämäläinen, chairman of the board at Delfin, said, “Delfin Technologies is excited about the collaboration with Teledyne LABS, aimed at delivering holistic IVPT solutions and added value to our mutual customers. Our partnership signifies a mutual dedication to excellence in product quality and service, driven by our shared mission of improving health of individuals. Together, we aim to elevate research standards and create lasting value for our customers.”
