PRS...bringing people and products together


Progressive Research Systems Ltd was established in 1990 with the aim of introducing exciting new developments in separations technology.

In those early days back in the 1990’s, PRS introduced products from the newly formed company PerSeptive Biosystems Inc, Perfusion Chromatography® media, known as POROS®, together with the first introductions to European customers of BioCad®, the original fully automated methods development workstation for biochromatography.

We in PRS Ltd look forward to introducing an expanding range of such valuable, innovative and enabling technologies as time proceeds. We hope you will enjoy learning about these products and look forward to your regular visits in the future to this new website.
