Shimadzu UK focuses on molecular and atomic spectroscopy with new specialist recruit

Shimadzu UK is continuing its program of investment in the molecular and atomic spectroscopy markets by appointing Andy Winn as a Product Specialist for atomic absorption (AA), inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and total organic carbon (TOC) in the company’s Spectroscopy Group.

Andy Winn.

Winn, who has a reputation for developing close customer relationships across the spectroscopy market, was formerly with Thermo Fisher Scientific before moving to Varian UK and Agilent Technologies. He brings a wealth of knowledge of AA and ICP techniques and joins Shimadzu at a time of growth across all the company’s spectroscopy products.

Winn’s appointment will help Shimadzu UK to continue to strengthen its position in the UK atomic spectroscopy sector. The company has recently created a collaborative agreement with the Civil Engineering department of Loughborough University for ICP applications in environmental and building applications.

“This is an exciting time to join Shimadzu’s Spectroscopy Group because the company is busy creating new benchmarks in atomic and molecular spectroscopy,” said Winn.
