About Us

VisiTech International's mission is to provide high quality innovative and novel imaging instrumentation and associated peripherals to the life science community. Customer focus is VisiTech's first priority and we aim to provide solutions that best fit the laboratory scientist's experimental needs.

With our headquarters in Sunderland, UK, our roots can be traced back to Joyce Loebl Ltd; one of the pioneering companies in image processing technology, and Applied Imaging, a leading supplier of Life Science instrumentation. In January 1999, a management buyout from Applied Imaging resulted in the creation of VisiTech International as an independent company.

VisiTech International is committed to substantial investment in Research & Development aimed at securing our position in existing markets as well as extending the scope of the application of our technology to emerging fields. We have a deserved reputation amongst our customers for innovation; having been responsible for the introduction of a whole range of new instrument technologies. To complement our own product range VisiTech International is committed to establishing strategic alliances with leading equipment suppliers world-wide. Since its inception VisiTech International has secured 20 distribution channels throughout the world, as well as establishing collaborations with original manufacturers, such as Yokogawa Electric Corporation in Japan and Evotec Technologies in Germany.

The success of VisiTech International has been achieved through an uncompromising approach to the analysis and design of equipment to meet market needs and the provision of comprehensive after sales support to our customer base; which includes such flagship names as GlaxoSmithKline and NASA.

Key Milestones

1988 MagiCal
The first video rate calcium measurement system on the market. It was used in pioneering work in the late eighties and early nineties.

1993 QuantiCell
Achieved status as the first multi-wavelength free-ion analysis system to exceed video rate performance.

1998 QLC100
Utilising the latest in camera and optical technologies to realise ultra high speed confocal imaging.

2000 VoxCell Scan
The first modular real time confocal laser scanning microscope system targeted at live imaging applications.

2000 QuantiCell 2000
Incorporates VisiTech International's unique fast switching Monochromator, and establishes a new standard for Dynamic Fluorescence Microscopy.

2003 The VT-Eye
Ultra-Fast point-scanning laser confocal microscope using Acousto-Optical Deflection (AOD) Technology. Captures images up to 10x faster than conventional galvanometer based systems.

2004 The VT-Infinity
The next generation in high speed, multi-point confocal scanners. Offers superior benefits to other multi-point confocal microscope technologies.
