(NYSE: A) announced today that it has received the 2018 IBO Industrial Design Gold Award for the Ultivo Triple Quadrupole LC/MS System from Instrument Business Outlook (IBO). The award recognizes excellence in the industrial design of an analytical instrument, and how industrial design can improve a product's functionality and the end user's experience.
