New Name, Unified Brand Identity, Proven Quality
The Laboratorium für Klinische Forschung GmbH (LKF), a member of the GBA Group, will now operate under the new company brand GBA Central Lab Services GmbH (GBA CLS). The rebranding initiative represents a strategic direction aimed at aligning the company’s identity with the global GBA Group and at communicating the core service with the company name. It reflects a clear commitment to enhancing international visibility, creating a consistent brand presence across all markets, and positioning GBA Central Lab Services GmbH as a unified and globally recognized provider of central laboratory services.
