Antwerp, Belgium—HRD Antwerp NV marks another milestone in its global expansion with the opening of its Lab Link service in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The Dubai service, done in conjunction with logistical partners Malca Amit in Antwerp, Belgium, and Transguard in Dubai, allows customers of the HRD Antwerp - Diamond Lab to access the lab's services remotely.

This includes full diamond certificates, fancy-color diamond certificates, laser inscriptions with the HRD Antwerp Certificate ID number on the girdle, and sealing, which guarantees the association between the stone and the certificate.

In Dubai, Transguard couriers will pick up stones at the clients' offices, send them to Antwerp for grading and return them to the clients with certificates after grading.

The service is available for companies of all sizes, including small and mid-sized companies that send out parcels of limited size, even single stones.

In addition to Lab Link, HRD Antwerp and Transguard have signed a memorandum of understanding that sets out possible cooperation in Dubai in the areas of marketing initiatives, education and training.

Lab Link services are already in place in Hong Kong, Israel and Mumbai, India.
