New Archive Building Complete

Everett, WA - May 1, 2008 - SNBL USA, one of the nation’s leading preclinical testing companies, is pleased to announce the opening of its new, state-of-the art archive building. At 4,000 sq. ft., this building was specifically designed to offer clients a more robust archiving solution infrastructure (ie, ability to archive wet tissue samples!) and support study archiving contracting work in general.

While SNBL USA’s core business includes conducting toxicologic studies and performing various specialized laboratory services, we recognized the need for accessible, dedicated space for study archive solutions that often times go hand in hand with the other services we perform on a day-to-day basis. With this new archive building SNBL USA offers clients the following GLP-compliant archiving solutions within an HVAC-controlled environment:

Blocks
Slides

Security Specifications
