With 95% penetration in the UK NHS market, X-Lab processed more than 500 million tests for UK citizens during Covid. Labgnostic, our lab-to-lab interoperability solution, is the world's first system-agnostic laboratory exchange network. And LabgnosticEQA delivers services for EQA/PT providers worldwide. X-Lab's newly launched LabReach solution, is an order communications portal that enables remote requesters to easily order tests and digitally receive results from any remote location.

Supporting over 180 LIS instances, X-Lab covers a comprehensive range of disciplines and our library of over 6,000 coded tests is growing daily. X-Lab operates throughout the UK, Ireland, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the USA.

X-Lab's head office is in Leeds, with another office in London, but our team is distributed across the UK. We're a remote-first organisation and believe in the flexibility to work in a way that supports your lifestyle, with many of our team choosing to work from one of our offices a few times a week and at home on other days. While our team lives in lots of different locations, we get together regularly as a company, and within our teams, to socialise and encourage the warm and friendly culture which sits at the heart of X-Lab.
