About Us
The headquarters of Thyrocare, also known as Centralized Processing Laboratory (CPL) is located at Navi Mumbai, India which conducts esoteric tests. We also have Regional Processing Laboratories (RPLs) situated in major metro cities of India and other parts of Asia. We aim to provide advanced technologies, powerful brands and strong systems that enable all laboratories to give their clients the best of science and technology at an affordable cost.
With a belief that 'Quality' is the heart of any intelligent management, Thyrocare has become one of the first Indian diagnostic laboratories to obtain internationally renowned quality accreditations like ISO 9001-2000 rating as early as 2001, which has now upgraded to ISO 9001:2008 and NABL and CAP (College of American Pathologists) accreditations in 2005.
Thyrocare boasts of extensive networks of authorized, fully trained and well-equipped collection centers that stay connected through a very strong IT and Logistics support. Realizing the importance of both speed and accuracy in diagnostics has further made us the first Indian laboratory to also have an IT enabled, 24x7, fully automated diagnostic laboratory set-up which covers over 2,00,000 sq. ft. floor space that ensures error-free processing of over 60,000 specimens and over 3,00,000 diagnostic and screening investigations each night. Our unsurpassable speed is achieved through a combination of air-cargo logistics and IT enabled, barcoded, bi-directional systems that ensures a turnaround time of 4 to 8 hours for processing of samples for 70% of the test menu that arrive at any time of the day or night.
Meticulously created and monitored systems, well-chosen and trained manpower, wise selection of the best global technologies for specialized testing and an uncompromising approach to instrumentation has ensured that Thyrocare is looked upon as a yardstick for quality by stakeholders in the diagnostic industry. The uniqueness of Thyrocare is its effort to continuously innovate and remain at par with the global standards for best of quality diagnostics at the most cost-effective prices.
Many laboratories and hospital brands all over India, Middle East and South East Asia use the comprehensive test profile menu offered by Thyrocare, thus delivering quality at an affordable cost.

Best of the Global brands, Best of their instruments, Best of the technologies, Best of the reagents, Best of the procedures, Best of systems, Best of IT completely available at the disposal of well-trained and highly focused Pathologists, Biochemists, Scientists and Technologists together gives Best of the Quality.
Information technology when used appropriately to integrate men, machines and methods, can deliver secured, assured, reliable and reproducible solutions even in the diagnostic industry. Integration of analyzers, web-servers and barcodes delivers a powerful system that can be controlled and monitored end to end.
With a growing number of brands using Thyrocare as their cost-effective back-end laboratory, our presence is becoming more prominent in more and more cities, countries and continents. Thyrocare today processes over 100 million investigations in a single year and has the promising capacity of processing more than 10 billion a year.
Thyrocare operates with a solitary focus on generating volumes, as it specializes on B2B operations. Hence, Thyrocare has been working on minimizing cost of retail reagents for its services. A fully optimized, highly efficient, seamless automation has ensured men, material and machines deliver only the highest level of quality services at affordable costs.
Laboratory functions 24X7. Air-cargo functions 24 X 7 and 80% of the business is air-cargo driven. Thyrocare provides barcoding of samples, maintains a bi-directional interface and web server solutions enhance the speed of the whole operation and allow any laboratory anywhere in the world to operate our machines as if they are present on their floor, generating test results and reports within 4-8 hours of flight touching the runway.
Our unwavering vision is to facilitate and standardize quality and cost of laboratory services across the world. By helping laboratories outsource their numerical pathology tests (clinical chemistry), quality of services are ensured by a username / password. Since the costs make economical sense for laboratories which lack volumes, this unique B2B focus helps the industry. Logically, we focus more on preventive care than sick care.
