About CoreLIMS

For more than 10 years, we've been at the forefront of laboratory information management. Proudly designed and built in the UK, we help pathology laboratories across Britain and beyond deliver faster, more accurate diagnostic results.

Our Story

CoreLIMS was born from a simple observation: pathology laboratories deserve software that truly understands their workflows. Founded in 1998 by professionals with deep experience in both healthcare IT and laboratory medicine, we set out to create a system that would genuinely improve how laboratories operate.

What started as a specialist histopathology solution has grown into a comprehensive platform serving multiple diagnostic disciplines. Throughout our journey, we've maintained our core commitment to understanding the unique challenges laboratories face every day.

As a proudly British company, we design, develop, and support CoreLIMS entirely from the UK. Our team understands the specific requirements of UK healthcare, including NHS frameworks, UKAS accreditation, and UK GDPR compliance. This local expertise means we can provide responsive support and develop features that truly meet the needs of British laboratories.

Today, CoreLIMS powers laboratories across the NHS, private healthcare, and research sectors, processing millions of samples annually and helping pathologists deliver timely diagnoses to patients who depend on them.
