HAL stands for ‘Haarlems Allergenen Laboratorium’, an originally Dutch company set up in Haarlem over 50 years ago. A lot has happened since then. HAL Allergy has grown into a company of international repute that operates in as many as 15 countries. Our products are supplied to major European countries, such as Germany, Austria, Italy, the Benelux, Spain and Greece.
We take more than a little pride in our leading role in the production of allergen extracts, both for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Our head office, which houses the development, production, quality control, clinical and registration departments, has a staff of approximately 180. HAL Allergy works intensively with its foreign branches and prominent research institutes, thus optimally combining knowledge and experience. Our aim is to continuously improve ways of diagnosing, treating and curing allergies.
