These investments underscore Agilent’s long-term commitment to India and our vision to empower customers with advanced tools, training, and environmentally responsible practices.”
Warren Potts, Vice President and General Manager of Agilent’s Applied Markets Group said, “The launch of the India Refurbishment Center is a significant step toward advancing circular economy principles in the scientific community. By offering certified pre-owned instruments with uncompromised quality, we are helping laboratories achieve their sustainability goals while maintaining access to cutting-edge technology. This initiative reflects Agilent’s global commitment to responsible innovation and customer success.”
Agilent's Trade-In and Buyback Program offers customers cash or credit for used instruments, seamlessly managing deinstallation, packaging (using reusable pallets), and shipping for environmentally responsible disposal. This global initiative covers over 200 products across 14 lines, complementing Agilent Financial Solutions and Instrument Rentals for accessible technology.
