Our work with ALine allowed us to rapidly prototype multiple generations/versions of microfluidic chips with good quality to validate our biology. The cost of the chips came down rapidly with scale.

Duleek RanatungaCEO Pear-Bio

We have enjoyed working with the team at ALine. Their professionalism and expertise have helped us meet and exceed our development timelines. We look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.

Alex RussomanoFounder, CEO New Haptics

The team at InSilixa enjoys working with the professional and knowledgeable partners we found with ALine Inc. The expertise and vision at ALine supported us more than once successfully. It is pleasure doing business with ALine inc.

Piyush SavaliaSr. Manager, Manufacturing Engineering, Insilixa

We have been working with ALine on a few projects, across two different companies in the last several years, and find the quality, responsiveness, and knowledge of the ALine team accelerates and adds value to our development.

Wendell SuCEO, Mobiosense

The hands-on, collaborative approach has been the best and most surprising part of our experience with ALine. Our technology includes components outside of what ALine produces, such as pumps and hydrogels. We sent these components to the ALine facility so the microfluidic chip designs could be built and tested for compatibility with everything else in the system, which saved us a lot of future headaches trying to fit everything together.

Duleek RanatungaCEO, Pear Bio

ALine's commitment to speed and quality has been extremely valuable to Epicore's product development efforts across multiple programs. ALine has continued to meet our manufacturing needs in support of beta testing and new product launches.
