FIAlab Instruments is a privately held company founded in 1987 (then named Alitea USA), initially as a distributor of Alitea AB's peristaltic pumps. However, it quickly became apparent that there was a demand for complete flow injection systems. In 1988 Alitea Instruments introduced two FIA systems; an educational non-computer based low cost instrument, and a computer based, high end instrument. Although somewhat limited when compared to our current product line, these early instruments are still widely used. Since then, FIAlab Instruments has introduced seven new state of the art FIA and SIA systems under the trade mark FIAlab®, as well as our line of detectors and flow cells. Innovative technology, top quality components, and the highest level of experience make FIAlab the most advanced, precise, compact and economical SIA and FIA instruments available. Automation of reagent based assays is critical to laboratory research in chemistry, biotechnology, drug screening and environmental studies, as well as in process control in industry. FIAlab brings quality and precision to this automation.

Mission Statement
