Empowering Results

The one thing all laboratories need to be successful is results they feel confident in.

Since 1936, millions of samples worldwide have been analyzed using LECO instruments for elemental analysis, thermal analysis, metallography, and mass spectrometry. Our comprehensive solutions for improving productivity include working with you to find the right equipment for the type of analysis you are doing — and providing you with the training, application support, and service you need to keep your lab running at its best. 

We take away the stress and frustration your laboratory experiences when faced with the increasing demands of doing more with less.
