Find the right solution according to your sample type and parameters

A cornerstone of the ethanol industry.

Today, more than 60% of US and European ethanol producers use a FOSS solution.

Cost effective FTIR analysis

BioFoss™ is a rapid, easy but yet accurate analytical solution for fermentation control based on FTIR spectroscopy. Sample preparation is limited to a paper filtration. No additional consumables or accessories are needed which heavily reduces the cost of operation per sample compared to HPLC methods.

FOSS service and support

Buying a FOSS solution automatically gives you access to a global network of more than 250 highly-trained service engineers.
