About us

Alfajer Consulting for Scientific and Health Laboratory Services

Alfajer Consulting was established by a group of Saudi scientists and laboratory practitioners with long experience in managing, operating and equipping laboratories in the academic, healthcare and research sectors. We offer that experience to institutions building new laboratories, upgrading existing ones, or contracting their operation to the private sector.

Our purpose

Every laboratory we work on reaches full use, meets its accreditation, and is run by qualified Saudi staff who can keep it that way.
