Laboratory and bioprocess equipment manufacturer serving life sciences and fertility markets globally
Esco manufactures biosafety cabinets, fume hoods, incubators, thermal cyclers, and IVF workstations for research and clinical labs across 150+ countries. The company is mid-stage in digital maturity: core systems run on Dynamics NAV and Oracle Primavera, but active hiring in sales (19 roles), manufacturing (11), and ops (10) suggests scaling production and commercial operations. Current project focus spans cell and gene therapy equipment development, CRM-ERP integration, and supply chain digitalization—pointing toward tighter internal systems and expansion into adjacent biotech segments.
