On October 4th, Bruker Corporation, a leading provider of high-performance scientific instruments and analytical solutions, announced a majority investment in MIRO Analytical, an innovative provider of fast, compact Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL)-based multi-gas analyzers for simultaneous, highest-precision monitoring of up to 10 trace gases. Based near Zürich, the Swiss start-up company MIRO serves atmospheric research and industrial customers, enabling fast, mobile, highest-precision air pollution and greenhouse gas (GHG) analysis to advance climate science, air pollution and industrial process monitoring.

As these two industry leaders join forces, they aim to revolutionize the way researchers, scientists, and industries worldwide approach the critical task of trace gas analysis, opening up new horizons for precision and innovation. 

Aimed at atmospheric research and industrial customers, MIRO Multi-Gas Analyzers (MGAs) have applications in mobile monitoring of greenhouse gas and pollution sources to stationary air-quality monitoring. Customers include leading climate scientists from research institutes such as German Space Agency, Research Center Jülich and French INRAE. MGAs are deployed in mobile labs in aircrafts or vehicles, in remote research stations and for laboratory experiments.

MIRO’s products also complement Bruker OMEGA and Matrix MG spectroscopic gas analyzers, with its automated, compact, high-precision MGAs for real-time trace gas monitoring. Bruker offers high-performance scientific instruments and high-value analytical and diagnostic solutions that enable scientists to explore life and materials at molecular, cellular and microscopic levels.

“We are delighted to become part of the Bruker family. MIRO and Bruker together are a perfect fit – we share the vision as a high-quality solutions provider in trace gas analysis. Together, we will deliver significant benefits and application insights to our customers in the environmental, climate research and industrial markets,” said Morten Hundt, CEO of MIRO Analytical.

MIRO Analytical won Venture Kick Stage 1 in 2017. “Winning Venture Kick Stage 1 in the very early days of our venture – MIRO wasn’t even founded yet – has encouraged us to continue pursuing our dream,” said Morten.
