About Us
Company profile
IONICON Analytik was founded 1998 as a spin-off company of the University of Innsbruck, Austria in order to make commercially available highly sensitive trace gas analysis instruments which are based on an innovative technology called Proton Transfer Reaction - Mass Spectrometry.
Since then we have been improving this leading-edge technology resulting in the development of several types of ultra sensitive high resolution online mass spectrometers. Our product range includes quadrupole MS and time of flight MS based instruments.
Today we are the world’s leading producer of trace gas detectors using PTR-MS technology. THE online mass spectrometry technology allowing for monitoring and quantification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in concentrations < 5 pptv.
We manufacture our precision instruments at our company site located in Innsbruck, Austria. Today the PTR-MS systems are sold throughout the world including countries from all over Europe, the USA, Japan, Korea and China. Our customer base is constantly growing and includes noted multinational companies as well as renowned research institutions in the fields of environmental, food, security and process monitoring applications.
Our solutions are used in atmospheric chemistry, in environmental research and trace gas analysis (e.g. emissions in urban and remote areas, indoor spaces, vehicles), food and flavour science (e.g. analysis of coffee, olive oil, butter, cheese, wine, herbal extracts and aromas) and industrial VOC monitoring (e.g. in waste incineration plant, chemical factories and production sites).
