"The Company has changed dramatically since I joined as CEO a little over two years ago and we have not only driven the core Labskin business, now recognised as a thought leader and product development partner in the skincare world, but we have also ventured into new and important fields, with artificial intelligence services in wastewater equipment and real-time breathalyser COVID-19 products. 

"DeepVerge reflects who we have become.  A company based on Deep science in diagnostics and environmental contamination detection on the Verge of applied engineering innovation on land, sea and air.  Our new name and visual identity are a signal that we are entering a new era for the Company - strong, bold and driven - connecting our core pillars of science, technology, environment and health to tackle the challenges of the future."
