Our laboratory

The EVG laboratory is specialized in genetic testing for animals. We work with many animal owners, breeders and veterinary clinics in Slovenia, Europe and elsewhere in the world.

Our story

The EVG laboratory started operating in 2010 with the desire to offer veterinarians and animal owners specialist diagnostic services that had not been available in Slovenia until then. The beginnings of the company were based on the enthusiasm of colleagues from scientific research circles, who saw in genetic testing of animals an opportunity for their entrepreneurial activity. With hard work, professionalism, enthusiasm and a positive approach, we have brought the company from humble beginnings to the present day, when the company employs six experts in the fields of genetics, veterinary medicine, economics and IT. Our offer includes more than 320 different tests in the field of genetics, allergies and endocrinology. In more than 10 years of operation, we have gained the trust of most veterinary clinics in Slovenia and many veterinarians, animal owners and breeders in Slovenia, Europe and elsewhere in the world. Our customers come from 47 countries around the world.
