In 1989, Bio-Rad purchased the British instrument-making firm, Vickers (1828 - 1999), apart from their defense products, which were sold to British Aerospace. In March 2021, Bio-Rad announced a partnership with Roche. In 2017, Bio-Rad acquired RainDance Technologies, a droplet-based PCR systems manufacturer. In some locations outside and inside these 35 countries, sales efforts were supplemented by distributors and agents. In 2016, the company had direct distribution channels in over 35 countries outside the United States through subsidiaries whose focus is sales, customer service and product distribution.
