Independent Producer of Electrochemical Gas Sensors

As an independent producer of electrochemical gas sensors, Membrapor (Switzerland) is fully committed to quality, service and innovation. They aim to meet and even exceed specific customer needs, yet in niche applications. The company policy of founder and CEO Dr. Christian Huggenberger is and has always been to concentrate on the development, manufacturing and marketing of premium sensors, i.e. state of the art products of high precision, reliability and longevity. The result are products with a minimum of service requirement and maximised value for money.

Membrapor offers a variety of over 200 sensors, able to detect 20 different gases. Some examples for innovative highlights of the last decade are the unbiased NH3 and HCl sensors with fastest response, a 4-electrodes CO sensor with H2 compensation for flue gas analysis and a highly sensitive Formaldehyde sensor. Expecting the EU regulations to ban lead containing gas sensors in the near future, Membrapor already offers since 2011 a lead free, RoHS compliant, long-living O2 sensor with unique output and baseline. Ahead of legislation, this helps to preserve the environment. The development of the L-type, a novel series of 4-electrode sensors capable to measure gas concentrations in the ppb range with high accuracy, is another innovative milestone.

Since the foundation of the company in 1995 the constantly growing number of satisfied customers is securing Membrapor's steady, healthy and profitable growth. Due to its constant growth, by October 2013 Membrapor will significantly enlarge its production area again. Each one of the entirely committed employees contribute to keep the satisfaction level of their customers high and to grow their number all over the globe.

In order to consolidate and strengthen its leading position, a considerable number of projects for product and process improvements as well as for customised solutions are under development at Membrapor.
