Quantum Design and ELDICO Scientific Announce Distribution Agreement

Quantum Design (QD) is pleased to announce a strategic global distribution partnership with ELDICO Scientific that integrates their industrial electron diffraction platform into Quantum Design’s worldwide network. The collaboration strengthens both companies’ positions across scientific and industrial markets and supports the broader adoption of electron diffraction as a strategic tool for structural analysis.

The pharmaceutical industry continues to demand faster and more reliable solid-state insights. ELDICO’s ED-1 system is designed specifically for automated, high-throughput operation with minimal supervision, reducing operator time and improving data consistency. Its ability to work from native nanocrystals provides a clear industrial advantage across API development, formulation, and broader R&D environments.

“Partnering with ELDICO Scientific further strengthens our industry-leading offerings in materials characterization by adding electron diffraction techniques.” stated Aashish Chourey, Director of Business Development for Quantum Design. “We look forward to providing the comprehensive sales & service support needed to take the ELDICO ED-1 to global markets.”

With Quantum Design’s established global reach and ELDICO’s dedicated electron diffraction technology, customers gain easier access to high-quality structural analysis capabilities and stronger support for scaling ED workflows.

“This partnership marks an important moment for both Quantum Design and ELDICO,” said Dr James Berwick, CEO of ELDICO Scientific. “We have established ourselves as the leading provider of industrial electron diffraction solutions to the pharmaceutical sector, and this collaboration allows us to build on that position. By combining Quantum Design’s global reach with our dedicated ED technology, we can expand access to high-quality structural analysis and create new opportunities for customers across research and industry. We look forward to presenting our joint capabilities at major conferences and exhibitions throughout 2026 and in the years ahead.”

Together, Quantum Design and ELDICO will accelerate the global adoption of electron diffraction for industrial and scientific decision-making.
