Hologic Costa Rica is building an 18,000 m˛ ( 194,000 sf) manufacturing plant in the Coyol Alajuela Industrial Zone. Due to the impressive track record of its existing Costa Rican operation, three or four production lines of medical and surgical equipment currently being produced elsewhere will be transferred to Costa Rica starting by the end of 2008.

It is expected that in three years Hologic Costa Rica will employ over 750 in its new Coyol Free Zone plant. High local work ethics were considered critical in selecting the country to expand the production of high quality medical implements for women.
