While ACG Inc. has its own fully equipped laboratory facility for quality control and R&D programmes, the Group's central R&D laboratory in the UK serves as the focal point for all product development. Under the control of UCSM, ACG Inc, ACG Ltd and the Technology Centre operate harmoniously to offer a co-ordinated service to clients across the globe.
