Dec. 3, 2024—StatLab Medical Products has launched a self-manufactured premium slide and cover glass brand. StatLab KT slides are developed, manufactured, and sold within the StatLab group and include a nonadhesive KT1, standard adhesive KT3+, and advanced adhesive KT5+. KT portfolio slides are validated for use on the company’s PiSmart slide printers and can be used in digital pathology. KT Koverglass, made from Schott D 263M glass, offers high refractive indices and uniform dimensions, resulting in true-to-life color representation and superior clarity.
StatLab also announced it has reached an agreement to acquire Diapath (Martinengo, Italy), a manufacturer of histology and cytology products and equipment. The integration of Diapath, with its innovative equipment offerings, manufacturing capabilities, and established customer base across Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America positions StatLab to expand its market access, according to a company press statement. The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of this year, subject to regulatory approvals.
