PRINCETON, N.J., April 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Orchid Cellmark Inc. (Nasdaq: ORCH), a leading worldwide provider of identity DNA testing services, today announced that it will open a new regional forensic facility in the North West of England later this year following a major award of work from nine new police forces. This work was awarded to Orchid Cellmark following the North West/South West and Wales regional forensic tender.

The laboratory will place Orchid Cellmark close to its customers in the North West of England and is expected to provide expansion capacity to accommodate the award as well as future growth. Orchid Cellmark has already started DNA testing work for some of its new police force customers and is currently preparing to take on the rest of the award.

Three-year contracts are expected to be executed shortly for the nine police forces under which Orchid Cellmark will provide forensic services, including DNA testing of database crime scene samples, forensic casework and PACE samples (DNA database samples taken under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act).
