Our People
Our Identity
When 1st BASE started in 2002, it was driven by a young and dynamic team, eager to carve a niche for ourselves in the local biotechnology industry. Our previous logo of a leaf in a test-tube inspired a sense of freshness and vibrancy. It also reflected our aspiration of being the trusted partner in the research community. Over the years, we rapidly expanded our manufacturing both in Singapore and Malaysia and today, our customers come to recognize 1st BASE is a leading life science service provider. In line with our growth, our logo has evolved accordingly.
