Ziath Reader Trade-Up Program
Trade in Your Old Reader for the New Mirage Connect or Cube Connect
To celebrate the launch of the new Ziath Mirage Connect and upcoming Cube Connect from Azenta Life Sciences, we’re inviting labs everywhere to take part in our Reader Trade-Up Program. Whether you own an older Ziath model, a legacy FluidX™ unit, or another reader brand, now is the perfect moment to upgrade – and connect with the future of sample management.
The Mirage Connect is available to order today, while the Cube Connect will be launching soon – secure your place in the trade-up program now.
