Welcome to the new Merck
We have made it different
The new Merck brand embodies our vibrant global business that makes a meaningful difference in the world. It reflects how we have transformed over the last decade into a global science and technology company that makes a meaningful difference.
Our new look and feel is inspired by the forms and colours seen under the microscope. It captures the essence of our work: making people’s lives richer through detail and discovery.
Our appearance is a bright step into the future for our business, but our focus on product quality and customer care is unchanged. We will continue to deliver the very best for our customers and partners around the world.

The name's Merck... |
We are now simply Merck across all businesses. Merck Serono and Merck
Millipore will appear as Merck in the future.
The only exceptions are in the USA and Canada. Here EMD Serono and EMD Performance Materials will retain their current names. Our life science business EMD Millipore will be renamed as Millipore Sigma
Although we operate under different business names, all our businesses are united by a common purpose: to advance technologies for life. We aim to cocreate a better world with our customers, patients and partners.

Taking Science Further
Our solutions enable scientists to spend more time
advancing the promise of science; our technologies detect the previously undetectable; and our products make it possible to monitor live cells in intricate detail. In effect, we empower science.
Our products make cutting-edge research possible. We develop
solutions that make lab work quicker, easier and cost-effective.
Our customers expect our products to set the benchmark in quality
and efficiency. Merck is synonymous with precision and purity andour Milli-Q® water purification systems reflect this, providing exceptional filtration technology for the lab.
Similarly, our Chromolith® columns for high performance liquid chromatography support a more efficient process by simplifying and speeding up the analysis of complex samples. The use of a highpurity silica gel saves time by cutting out the need for sample preparation enabling researchers to generate results typically four times faster than with standard particle columns.
