HORIBA Medical and NOEMALIFE signed a worldwide distribution agreement for a dedicated version of the Halia middleware.

HORIBA Medical and NoemaLife announced in January a non-exclusive agreement, for the worldwide distribution of Halia, the web-based Laboratory Automation System by NoemaLife which allows central management of all pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical instruments, making it possible to connect multiple sites, multiple Laboratory Information Systems and multiple instruments of various disciplines of the laboratory. “The addition of Halia to HORIBA Medical ’s Hematology product line makes it possible for a wide range of clinical laboratories to realize efficiencies resulting from a powerful yet very user friendly data management. NoemaLife is pleased to serve as HORIBA Medical‘s middleware provider in this effort” said Piero Tassoni, Diagnostic Marketing & Alliance Director NoemaLife, “HORIBA Medical equips more than 30,000 laboratories throughout the world, distributed in 110 countries in 5 continents. Not only we are proud to work with a partner who holds world records in its industry, but we are confident that this agreement has huge potential.” The specific version of the Halia middleware distributed by HORIBA Medical will soon integrate all the Hematology Expert validation station features that HORIBA Medical so far proposed exclusively in its “ABX Pentra ML” Work Station, the all-in-one validation system entirely dedicated to whole blood. “Halia is an important evolution to our hematology solution’s offer” said Olivier Pou, Corporate Marketing Director, HORIBA Medical. “The addition of a specific version of the Halia middleware to our product offer makes it possible for HORIBA Medical to provide a complete solution to our worldwide base of customers around the hematology expertise but also to facilitate the integrated management of hematology within the global IVD laboratory”.
