Eurofins is, by choice, not a typical centralised laboratory group. Instead, we are, by design, a hub of entrepreneurship. Each of our laboratories is usually an independent company led by an entrepreneur. Why? Because we believe in excellence for every customer and understand this is only possible when our laboratory leaders are empowered to make their own decisions in their own company and optimise in real time the services they offer.

Each of our laboratories operates as a dynamic, market driven business in its own right, managed by its own independent entrepreneurial leader, constantly striving for improvement. Our people are empowered, not micro-managed. They’re not afraid to take risks or do things differently.

Excellence is never typical and this is why we offer our testing services through a uniquely structured global network of local laboratories close to our customers, alongside centres of excellence. This means every customer, wherever they are in the world, can tap into the Eurofins network close to where they operate to access unrivalled expertise and the very latest testing technologies through a local direct point of contact they know.

Our laboratories always look for the best outcome for every customer, referring work to the most appropriate centre of excellence and welcoming referrals from others in return. At Eurofins, we understand that we all win when the customer wins.

Being where our customers need us

Eurofins is a business with a clear mission and driving purpose. We want to make the world a better and safer place by ensuring best-in-class laboratory testing is accessible to all who need it.

We think it’s important to be where our customers need us, which is why you’ll find us at over 950 laboratories in over 1,000 independent companies across 60 countries spanning six continents. And we’re still growing, constantly adding new capacity and capabilities to keep pace with our customers.

Eurofins has established specialist centres of excellence for most analytical areas, with world-class skills, tools and processes, which all of our laboratories can tap into. This means our customers, wherever they are in the world, can access best-in-class expertise and technology by linking into the Eurofins network. And because this global network is underpinned by a proprietary, global cutting-edge IT solutions and logistical capability, we can provide a seamless service for every customer.

Our decentralised approach

A decentralised approach only works when a business has complete confidence in the judgement and competence of its leaders. Our Leadership Charter makes clear the high standards we set, be it the ability to hire the best talent or executing strategies that deliver results and delight customers.

Our people must combine scientific excellence with commercial awareness and be as comfortable at the lab bench as they are building the business. We look for leaders who thrive on the freedom to make their own decisions but understand the importance of teamwork. We’re entrepreneurs, who understand we’re stronger together.
