Company Profile
The fundamental goal of a scientific researcher is to become a foremost authority in his field. This is accomplished by having access to the best available technology, which is capable of delivering accurate data, both efficiently and dependably. Since new scientific data is untested, it must be reproducible and trustworthy. Beta Analytic's mission is to give researchers access to such technology. Understanding and satisfying this need has resulted in a growing client list of over 5000 scientists from more than 30 countries around the world.
Today, Beta Analytic is the world's largest radiocarbon dating laboratory. Our devotion to accuracy, dependability, and confidentiality is the foundation upon which our colleagues' faith and trust is built. This trust is the motivating force behind our consistent efforts to provide quality scientific data. Our devotion to accuracy and dependability has led to a world renowned reputation, one we hold as our most precious possession.
