JEFCOR LABORATORIES, INC., a name synonymous to Quality Testing and Services, originally started as Jefcor Incorporated where it was initially engaged in the manufacture and distribution of chemicals, home products and materials. The Testing and Technical Services Laboratory was put up in 1997 to initially cater the needs of the pesticide industry and the Fertilizer & Pesticide Authority (FPA). Si
nce then, a growing number of analyses and laboratory testing on various substrates has been conducted. JEFCOR has three branches serving its growing clientele spread across the country: The sales office in Paranaque, Metro Manila; the Main Laboratory in First Cavite Industrial Estate (FCIE), Dasmarinas, Cavite; and another branch in Lanang, Davao City, to service Mindanao, the bread basket of the country. The laboratory's greatest asset is its people. It is run by no less than a multi-awarded Chemist-Entomologist backed up by technical advisers equally recognized in their field of expertise. Supervisory jobs in the laboratory are handled by registered/licensed chemists. Chemistry and Chemical Technology graduates have been hired as laboratory analysts. The company extends a hand in training students, technical graduates and interested individuals in Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and Chromatography.
