Upcoming Price Adjustment for Quantifoil Grids
We would like to inform our customers in advance about an upcoming price adjustment for Quantifoil grids. Although our purchasing costs for Quantifoil grids increased several months ago, we have continued to absorb these additional costs to keep our prices stable for our customers. As of July 1, we will however need to adjust our prices accordingly. All orders received by June 30 will still benefit from the current prices. Thank you for your understanding!
