Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (SSI) announced the opening of a new regional office in Carlsbad, CA. This office allows Shimadzu to provide more direct sales, technical and service support for Southern California, Southern Nevada and Hawaii, and will be fully supported through the corporate office in Columbia, MD.


The Carlsbad location, Shimadzu’s ninth US regional office, is one more step in its plan to continually expand throughout the United States.

“Our goal is to offer quality, convenient service and to enable our customers to work more efficiently with both their time and money,” SSI president Takeshi Kawami said.

Shimadzu formerly worked for this region through a distributor, Cole Scientific. Many of the Cole Scientific employees have transferred to Shimadzu to ensure uninterrupted customer service under the Shimadzu umbrella.
