Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc., a medical technology company delivering intelligent, non-invasive drug screening solutions, today announced the success of its ongoing partnership with Spjotgard, an established distributor serving the Scandinavian market.
The collaboration is accelerating the adoption of the Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System across Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, with a growing interest in Finland. This is despite questions about the reliability of such tests.
Spjotgard, founded in 2021 by a team with deep pharmaceutical expertise, has rapidly developed a “strong regional footprint, positioning INBS’ fingerprint drug testing technology as its flagship solution in response to rising demand for modern, dignified approaches to drug testing”, states a press release.
“From the very beginning, we’ve seen strong interest in fingerprint-based testing across the region,” said Hans Svensson, joint owner of Spjotgard. “Traditional methods like saliva and urine are still common, but our customers, especially in workplace safety and education, are seeking more hygienic, easy to use and less invasive alternatives. Fingerprint drug testing delivers that while delivering comparable levels of accuracy, saving time and reducing disruption.”
The press release continues by stating:
INBS’ Drug Screening System is primarily used for random testing, post-incident investigations, and for-cause testing scenarios. Customers appreciate its simplicity and reduced discomfort compared to traditional urine tests, which require invasive observation. INBS’ Drug Screening System is used across logistics, construction, warehousing, education, and the criminal justice sector. In Sweden, growing concern about drug driving incidents and drug misuse among youth is leading organizations to explore more proactive testing strategies.
Spjotgard’s presence in the region continues to expand through strategic collaborations with providers of drug-detection dogs and alcohol testing services. This includes a partner that has manufactured and sold evidential alcohol testing instruments to judicial authorities, primarily in the Nordic countries, as well as entry systems for companies with automatic alcohol checks. Spjotgard is actively engaged in customer demonstrations and industry events, primarily in Sweden. Spjotgard sees significant potential in Norway and plans to aggressively target this region in the months ahead.
“Scandinavia is setting a high standard in progressive drug testing policy, particularly Sweden, which is often seen as a model for neighboring countries,” said Doug Heath, Vice President of Global Sales at Intelligent Bio Solutions. “Spjotgard’s strong market knowledge and trusted relationships make them a valuable partner as we continue to scale across Northern Europe.”
INBS’ Drug Screening System enables rapid, on-site drug screening using fingerprint sweat, with results delivered in under 10 minutes. Unlike traditional methods that require supervision, third-party administration, or removing staff from the job, INBS’ Drug Screening System offers a discreet and efficient solution that is quickly gaining favor among HR teams, health and safety managers, and union representatives in Scandinavia.
With over 450 accounts across 24 countries, INBS continues to advance the evolution of drug screening technology. INBS and Spjotgard are driving a global shift towards more progressive, dignified, and effective drug testing solutions that satisfy the needs of employers in Scandinavia and beyond.
