INKREDIBLE Series Discontinuation

This letter serves as communication on the status of the INKREDIBLE (D16110010616) and INKREDIBLE+ (D16110010716) bioprinter
systems. As part of CELLINK’s ongoing portfolio evolution and commitment to providing researchers with the most advanced bioprinting solutions, CELLINK has discontinued the sale of INKREDIBLE series systems effective 15th Oct 2026.

CELLINK remains committed to enabling our customers’ success and will continue to support all existing INKREDIBLE Series customers as per our terms of sale or up to a maximum of 5 years after purchase. This commitment is based on the continued availability of components, materials, and services from our suppliers and partners. Should circumstances beyond our control affect availability, we will make reasonable efforts to identify suitable alternatives and minimize any impact on our customers.

In addition, no additional software updates will be provided for the INKREDIBLE series system. The latest supported software version is HeartWare 2.4.1

We would like to thank our customers for their continued trust in the INKREDIBLE series platform. Since its introduction, the INKREDIBLE series has supported researchers worldwide in advancing bioprinting applications across tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and life science research.

Should you have any questions regarding this discontinuation notice or available upgrade paths, please contact your local CELLINK representative.

Discontinuation of Bioinks and Consumables

Dear valued customer,

This letter serves as communication on the discontinuation of some SKUs tied to our biomaterial and consumable portfolio.

At CELLINK, we remain committed to delivering comprehensive, user-friendly bioprinting solutions that uphold high quality standards while maintaining competitive pricing. As part of this ongoing effort, we have decided to phase out some of our biomaterial and consumable products to better support the needs of the community.

We recognize that these materials might play an important role in your research. Therefore, we have provided alternative sourcing options or recommended equivalent replacement products wherever possible. Please note that for several discontinued SKUs, the suggested replacement is the same biomaterial offered in a different volume or packaging configuration.

You can view the complete list of discontinued biomaterials and recommended replacements here (desktop only).

Discontinuation of Bioinks and Consumables

Dear valued customer,

This letter serves as communication on the discontinuation of a range of SKUs tied to our biomaterial and consumable portfolio.

CELLINK continuously strives to offer complete, easy-to-use bioprinting solutions of high quality and with attractive price points. As a result, we have chosen to discontinue a selection of our biomaterials and consumables to better serve the community. We value our customers and understand that some of these materials are vital to your research, and have therefore to the best of our ability recommended other sources or otherwise equivalent replacements for these products. Please note that for several discontinued SKUs, the suggested replacement product is exactly the same biomaterial product, but with a different volume/packaging.

Lumen X and Lumen X+ Discontinuation

Dear valued customer,

This letter serves as communication on the status of the Lumen X Generation 1 (D16110030119) and Lumen X+ Generation 1 (D16110023605) systems. Given the turbulent supply chain environment and a rapidly growing shortage of key components, CELLINK will no longer be offering brand new versions of these two systems. Customers will still be able to purchase refurbished units, while supplies last.

CELLINK remains committed to enabling our customers success and thus will continue to support all existing Lumen X/X+ customers as per our terms of sale or up to a maximum of 5 years after purchase. In addition, we would like to inform customers of the following important dates:

· Instrument spare parts will be available until 1st May 2027

· No additional software updates will be provided for either system. Latest versions are as follow:

o Lumen X Generation 1: Lightfield V 1.0.9.4

o Lumen X+ Generation 1: Lightfield V 3.1.0

We continue to strive to provide our customers with the most cutting-edge instruments that can accelerate discoveries and provide our users greater insights. For users looking to work with high resolution light-based 3D bioprinting systems, we encourage the evaluation of our new BIONOVA X platform, which has improved printing resolution and enables direct in well-printing.
