DataPhysics Instruments has established a worldwide reputation for the provision of high quality and innovative measurement equipment within the field of surface and interfacial science. With more than 2500 installations across a diverse range of laboratories, DataPhysics Instruments is regarded as a reliable and professional partner, providing specialised products and individual advice. And the customer base continues to grow, year on year.
The foundations for this success story were laid in August 1997 when original shareholders, Dr. Ulrich Busch, Torsten Holz and Horst Rau, started their business, with seven employees, in Filderstadt near Stuttgart, Germany. The vision of the founders was clear: they would develop highly beneficial, trendsetting measuring devices, sold and supported worldwide, with a highly qualified team of scientists and engineers, working in close cooperation with those investing in the technology. The commitment, enthusiasm, and creativity of the small team meant that after just nine months the first optical contact angle measuring instrument could be introduced at Analytica in 1998 – a major success!

In the years that have followed the product range has widened with the addition of techniques such as tensiometry, spinning drop tensiometry and dispersion stability analysis. This has established DataPhysics Instruments as a single source provider for measuring devices used in the analysis of surface and interfacial properties. A continuously growing range of instrument accessories, together with the availability of the company’s application laboratory and training centre, provide for the “complete package” when addressing the challenges that interfacial interactions provide.
Today, more than 20 years on, DataPhysics Instruments has established a leading position in a very demanding market, and anticipates an exciting future. Since March 2017, a new executive team has led the company: long time employees Jens Ole Wund, physicist and new product development manager, and Nils Langer, engineer and sales director, are now managing partners together with founder Horst Rau. All three are eager to continue the DataPhysics Instruments success story in the coming years. And they have a strong base on which to move forward.
