University of Leeds Invests Heavily in Polarising Microscopes

Meiji Techno UK is excited to report that one of their leading UK dealers, Mazurek Optical Services, have recently installed an order of eighty five polarising microscopes in the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds.

The School was formed in 2004 from the merger of the Schools of Earth Sciences and of Environment. It is one of the largest schools in the UK focusing on a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the environment. The School studies the Earth from its core to its atmosphere examining the social and economic dimensions of sustainability. Their studies must range from the nanoscale to the global scale and from the study of contemporary processes to investigations of environmental change in the depths of geological time, providing a critical perspective to the understanding of long-term change.

Collections Manager, Robert Finch, said: “The School of Earth and Environment in Leeds recently made the decision to invest in 85 brand new Meiji ML9100 microscopes to support its continued excellence in teaching delivery. To this end, it was imperative we achieved the best level of quality for the best value. We believe that through Mazurek Optical Services, we achieved this, purchasing an excellent quality teaching microscope our students will continue to learn on well into the future. This will be supported by Mazurek’s continued excellent servicing and support framework and after sales care.”

Commenting on the news, Richard Fry, Managing Director of Meiji Techno UK, said this is an excellent example of the quality of sales and service provided by Mazurek Optical Services. He continues: “Mazurek and Meiji work closely together to provide quality microscopes at competitive prices. We are grateful to the Leeds users for selecting Meiji to meet their teaching needs.”
