Together, these four centres enable us to remain focused on excellence as they respond to the diagnostic needs of the world.

Flux Instruments

Acquisition in 2007
In 1992 Flux Instruments was founded in the small industrial town of Karlskoga in Sweden. The founders predicted an increasing potential for their novel HPLC pump, based on a radically new concept. Its secret? Hitherto unknown miniaturisation techniques leading to unsurpassed precision and micro flow capabilities. With its R&D department near Munich in Germany and its manufacturing site in Sweden and Switzerland. Technology leadership and precision manufacturing have been given the highest priority. They will continue their innovative strategies and make sure to also fulfill your needs in the years to come. High-Pressure-Liquid-Chromatography has outstanding world-wide growth, probably outperforming all other types of analytical instruments. In combination with MS has, the use of micro bore and capillary columns already are state-of-the-art, other areas in HPLC are likely to follow. The necessity to deliver gradient HPLC flow in the low micro- and even nanoliter range has been their challenge from begin on. Today they offer the No. 1 system for microbore HPLC and have a clear leadership in this market segment. Whether for applications in in life sciences, in proteomics research or in the area of high throughput analysis and fast analysis cycles, the miniaturized design of their instruments is the key to outstanding performance.
