Anton Paar sets up offices in Australia, NZ
Anton Paar, a manufacturer of high-quality measuring and analysis instruments for research and industry, has set up new offices in Sydney and Auckland.
The local subsidiaries were launched on 1 January 2018 in order to meet the growing demand for high-quality instrumentation and an ever-expanding network of customers in Australasia. Led by the new Managing Director, Jutta Rieger, both offices feature fully equipped laboratories and collaborative spaces to demonstrate new applications and host educational workshops to improve the end-user experience.
“For almost two decades Anton Paar’s products and services have been represented very successfully in Australia and New Zealand by MEP Instruments, a joint venture company owned by Anton Paar of Austria and Metrohm of Switzerland. Over the years the business volume has grown significantly, which led to the decision to dissolve the joint venture and set up separate legal entities for Anton Paar and Metrohm in Australia and New Zealand,” Anton Paar Australia and Anton Paar New Zealand Managing Director Jutta Rieger said.
“Opening new subsidiaries in the Asia Pacific region is part of Anton Paar’s global growth strategy, which also includes acquisitions to further enrich the portfolio for the benefit of our customers.”
Anton Paar Australia and Anton Paar New Zealand are now in a position to focus on all 13 product lines within the wide portfolio of high-quality laboratory devices and solutions, said Rieger.
Founded in 1922 in Austria, the company is the market leader in measuring density, viscosity and carbon dioxide. The company offers accurate devices for the examination of surfaces, particles or diluted gases like oxygen, and develops tailor-made analytical solutions that can be integrated into existing or new processes. The company’s solutions are employed in a range of industries, including food and beverages, cosmetics, petrol-based products, pharmaceuticals and many others.
With the help of 60 distribution partners, Anton Paar exports 93% of analytical solutions to 110+ countries.
