Company Profile
Fresenius Umwelttechnik GmbH is looking back on a long-standing corporate history. The foundation for the sales and distribution of process measurement technology was laid in 1992 when Fresenius Umwelttechnik GmbH was founded. Since many different industrial sectors are increasingly interested in special online analytics, Fresenius Umwelttechnik has committed itself to expanding its focus to a significant extent. Today, Fresenius Umwelttechnik is one of the leading manufacturers of gas analysers and measurement systems, attending to customers from the industrial sector and many other branches using process analytics.
