01 Oct 2005 - Farfield Wins Prestigious MNT Quality Mark

The UK Micro and NanoTechnology Network (MNT), has initiated a Quality Mark for companies involved in and supplying the nanotechnology industry. The objective of the MNT Quality Mark is to benchmark development and implementation of best practice and to set a strict minimum standard of performance and achievement.

The MNT Quality Mark is a key milestone for the UK nanotechnology industry. The MNT network was launched in 2003 and has seen the nanotechnology industry rapidly evolve and expand in the UK.

Farfield is one of only six companies to achieve MNT's highly esteemed Quality Mark. This significantly strengthens Farfield's position as a world leader in innovation, and is a reflection of Farfield's pioneering approach to analytical measurement to meet the demands of the emerging nanotechnology market.

Dr Simon Carrington, Farfields Sales & Marketing Manager commented "we are delighted to be one of the first UK companies to receive such recognition. We see the award as a clear endorsement of our position as a leading developer of new nanotechnology instrumentation".

The global market for nanotechnology is forecast to exceed $1,000 billion within the decade. For further information please contact us by e-mail sales@farfield-sensors.com
