THE CONSORTIUM

Bruker Optik GmbH

The main areas of Bruker Optik’s activities are developing, manufacturing and marketing of analytical and research equipment. Staff of more than 90 persons is involved explicitly in developing instrumentation and products, which are manufactured at the same site for worldwide distribution.  For more than 40 years Bruker Optik concentrates its efforts in optical (infrared) spectroscopy by developing Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), FT-Raman and FT-near infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometers as well as accessories for these instruments. Bruker Optik's spectrometers are used in research institutions and industry all over the world for a variety of different applications ranging from analyzing endogenous influence of gases in the atmosphere to scientific research up to quality control in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry
