ENNIS headquartered Vitalograph has confirmed its acquisition of Massachusetts-based Morgan Scientific.
In a move which will strengthen Vitalograph’s commercial footprint in the United States, it has become the new owner of its long-term partner. The addition of a new subsidiary coincides with Vitalograph’s 50th anniversary of operating and growing in Ennis.
It forms a key milestone in Vitalograph’s plans to develop its respiratory diagnostics business globally. The company is in the middle of an ambitious growth strategy and is on track to treble its respiratory diagnostics business in the four years leading to 2026.
Frank Keane, CEO of Vitalograph stated, “We have a long and successful relationship with Morgan Scientific. This agreement is the natural progression for both companies as our combined expertise allows us to focus on delivering the best possible diagnostic solutions that can enable a better understanding of lung health”.
Morgan Scientific is an expert in customer-facing software for advanced PFT systems. ComPAS2, the company’s flagship software powers Vitalograph’s innovative range of advanced PFT solutions, the VitaloPFT Series. Morgan Scientific is also a key distributor for Vitalograph’s pulmonary function testing solutions in the US.
Speaking of their collaboration to date, Frank outlined, “The recent creation of the VitaloPFT Series has given us valuable experience in working as a team and built mutual respect for our individual expertise. Morgan Scientific is a natural complement to the Vitalograph brand, and this development brings incredible value to our customers all over the world. This acquisition paves the way for us to develop our comprehensive PFT range further”.
He continued, “Vitalograph is a family-owned company and recognises the pioneering drive of the Morgan family to create a business founded on people, integrity, quality, and innovation. These values are at the heart of Vitalograph and are instilled in every part of our business today”.
Gareth Morgan, son of the founder of Morgan Scientific, Patrick Morgan, commented, “There is no other company in the world that we trust to uphold our legacy of innovation and to continue to put the needs of customers at the forefront of every decision. Joining a globally present and renowned brand such as Vitalograph will enable us to concentrate our efforts on building the business through what we know best – excellence in innovation and customer service”.
