Headquartered in Augsburg, Germany, the company currently has approximately 7,000 employees in Germany, the UK, and 18 other European countries, as well as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Dubai.

Technology and innovation are understandably high priorities for SYNLAB, which provides reliable services that drive quality results through state-of-the-art technology and a clinically led approach.

In 2009, SYNLAB identified a need for a secure managed file transfer solution that would support a variety of protocols to transfer files both in-house and for customers.

SYNLAB decided to look for an innovative replacement product and began by researching alternative solutions online. After making contact with South River Technologies’ (SRT) distribution partner Meco Systemhaus, SYNLAB began a trial to evaluate SRT’s Cornerstone MFT.
