Press Release Body: Invetech, a specialist in contract development and manufacture
of biomedical products, instruments and custom automation, announces that it has
opened a new 15,000 square foot facility in San Diego, California to support the
expansion of its client base in North America.

Since 2002 Invetech has had an active business development team in North America,
resulting in steady growth and successful establishment of a North American client
base. The new facility now adds California based design, engineering and contract
manufacturing services to Invetech's capabilities. The California location is in
close proximity to an extensive high technology and scientific community that will
both aid and benefit from Invetech's product development, custom automation and
manufacturing solutions.

community in areas such as point-of-care, molecular diagnostics, medical devices and
living cell processing, that California also offers. This creates the opportunity
for strong market expansion while allowing Invetech to increase its growing expert
workforce.

Jari Palander, Invetech Vice President, comments "Our new office extends our skills,
expertise and proven experience, allowing us to better bridge the gap between
research, product development and manufacturing. From this base, a more
responsive and flexible approach enables us to deliver the best outcome for our
client - commercial success."

commitment to our North American customers and reflects the increasing demand for
our services. Invetech is continually expanding its client base and with increased
activity in this region, we have aggressive growth plans for our new office. The
