Concateno plc - global drug testing services

 

Medscreen

 

Dear Medscreen website visitor,

Our services are now integrated within our parent company, Concateno, and form part of Concateno's specialist Employee Services, Maritime and Criminal Justice divisions.

The combined laboratory, customer service, and training resources of Concateno make a marked contribution to how we deal with drug and alcohol issues within the workplace and UK criminal justice system, so that we can provide you with the most comprehensive drug and alcohol testing services available in Europe, with even greater levels of support.

As part of our integration within Concateno, our registered company name has changed from Medscreen to Concateno South. You will see this new name on all forms of business correspondence and documentation, but for marketing purposes we will simply be trading as Concateno.

An important part of the integration is the bringing together of all our online resources within one new website - www.concateno.com  For information on Concateno and our complete range of products and services, please use the navigation tabs above, or use these links to our Employee Services (drug and alcohol testing in the workplace), Maritime (drug and alcohol testing worldwide) and Criminal Justice services

If you would like to contact us regarding these changes, please call us on Tel: +44 (0)20 7712 8000 or email us at enquiries@concateno.com
