DR. ARNOLD O. BECKMAN
Imagine It! 100 Years of Excellence



Beckman Coulter, Inc. simplifies and automates laboratory processes used in all phases of the battle against disease. The company’s systems — consisting of instruments, chemistries, software and supplies — enable biomedical analysis. These systems are in use around the globe, helping laboratories conduct pioneering medical research, speed drug discovery and perform diagnostic tests to manage patient care.

Nearly half of company sales are derived outside North America. More than two-thirds of annual revenues are generated by recurring after-market sales of chemistry kits, operating supplies and system service. For a comprehensive picture of our products, see the fold-out matrix on the inside front cover. On the inside back cover you will find a tribute to our founder and centenarian, Dr. Arnold O. Beckman.
