Since its founding in 1864, the family-owned company is a leading provider of optoelectronic measuring instruments. Today the product portfolio comprises polarimeters, refractometers, photometers, and process analytical systems for the food, pharmaceutical, chemical industries, and many more. A new generation of density meters advances our instrument range for liquid analysis, combining decades of expertise with latest digital technology. The instruments of SCHMIDT + HAENSCH are known for their high precision and cutting-edge technology with unrivaled durability and product longevity.
