Xenemetrix Names North American Distributor for Material Analyzers

BUFFALO, NY, May 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Eastern Applied Research is pleased to announce that the organization has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Xenemetrix Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eurocontrol Technics Inc. Eastern Applied will act as the exclusive distributor and service provider of Xenemetrix EDXRF analyzers throughout North America. For twenty years, Eastern Applied has provided a reliable source of service, support and solutions for all models of x-ray fluorescence analyzers and is pleased to now offer a premier material analyzer line from Xenemetrix Inc.

"Xenemetrix's new partnership with Eastern Applied Research provides the company with a solid footprint in North America," commented Bruce Rowlands, CEO Eurocontrol Technics. "We are delighted to have the support of Eastern Applied Research, who is considered to be leaders in the North American X-ray fluorescence analyzer marketplace. Eastern Applied Research anticipates good demand for the advanced Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectroscopy technologies produced by Xenemetrix," added Bruce Rowlands.

Already established as a leading provider of XRF analyzers for coating thickness applications, the addition of the Xenemetrix line allows Eastern Applied the opportunity to meet demand for a wide range of material analysis interests. Initial applications will focus on EDXRF for oil/petroleum testing, environmental analysis and mining/soil related interests as detection of hazardous substances in soils (RCRA Metals) is a primary application of Xenemetrix.
