Powder characterization specialist Freeman Technology has announced that its Chinese operations have moved into a larger facility equipped with a laboratory and that the company has hired Tom Qin as General Manager and Ruty Li as National Sales Manager in China. In Europe, the company has added Alfatest Srl as a new distributor in Italy and Pragolab in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The expansion comes after record sales in 2015 and the first quarter of 2016, the company said.
Freeman’s powder testing instruments can be used to understand aerosolization characteristics and to optimize volumetric dosing for dry powder inhalation formulations.
Freeman Technology Managing Director Tim Freeman said, “Continued growth is, of course, highly encouraging and a tribute to the team. New partnerships in Italy, and the Czech Republic, along with our recent expansion of the China team, underline our commitment to maintaining exemplary service across the globe, as we grow. The recent launch of the Uniaxial Powder Tester also emphasizes our commitment to ongoing technical innovation. Though very different in nature, both of these advances demonstrate our determination to remain highly responsive to customer requirements.”
