ANN ARBOR, MI / ACCESSWIRE / September 11, 2024 / Zomedica Corp. (NYSE American:ZOM) ("Zomedica" or the "Company"), a veterinary health company offering diagnostic and therapeutic products for equine and companion animals, is pleased to announce the completion of renovations at its 30,000-square-foot manufacturing, distribution, and research and development (R&D) facility in Plymouth, Minnesota.

Highlights of the renovation include:

• Expanded cleanroom for manufacturing operations

• Installation and validation of new automated line to produce TRUFORMA^® consumable cartridges

• Improved distribution facilities for more efficient and streamlined shipping of TRUFORMA cartridges

"With the steady growth of our TRUFORMA product line, these facility renovations, and new automated production equipment have increased manufacturing capacity which we believe will meet increasing demand for TRUFORMA cartridges for years to come," stated Larry Heaton, Zomedica's Chief Executive Officer. "This latest upgrade strengthens our ability to meet rising customer demand while continuing to develop our expanding assay portfolio."

"This renovation is an important step in keeping us positioned for success," stated Tony Blair, Zomedica's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. "I am pleased to share that we have completed all our necessary testing and validation, and customer cartridges are now being produced on our automated cartridge line. The new state-of-the-art TRUFORMA cartridge line can produce up to one million cartridges annually and will drive new levels of efficiencies in addition to significantly bolstering our manufacturing capacity. We remain dedicated to expanding our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to deliver the high-quality products our customers deserve."

The TRUFORMA diagnostic platform utilizes Qorvo Inc.'s proprietary Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) sensor technology, providing veterinarians with highly precise and sensitive diagnostic measurements. The TRUFORMA system offers an advantage over traditional optical-based technologies, enabling more accurate diagnosis and treatment of complex thyroid and adrenal conditions, canine non-infectious gastrointestinal disease, and equine Cushing's disease.
