Malvern Panalytical
Malvern Panalytical is a Spectris plc company. The company is a manufacturer and supplier of laboratory analytical instruments. It has been influential in the development of the Malvern Correlator, and it remains notable for its work in the advancement of particle sizing technology. The company produces technology for materials analysis and principal instruments designed to measure the size, shape and charge of particles. Additional areas of development include equipment for rheology measurements, chemical imaging and chromatography. In 2017, they merged with PANalytical to form Malvern Panalytical Ltd.
Malvern Instruments Ltd. was incorporated in 1971. In 1977, Malvern Instruments was recognised by the Royal Academy of Engineering, jointly with the Royal Signals and Radar Establishment (RSRE), for developing the Malvern Correlator. It also received the MacRobert Award for Outstanding Technical Innovation (1977), the Queen's Award for Technological Achievement (1977), the Queen's Award for Export Achievement (1981), and the Queen's Award for Export & Technology (1988).
In 1992, Burnfield acquired Malvern Instruments from Cray Electronics Holdings, and, in 1996, there was the acquisition of A3 Water Solutions GmbH, a Stuttgart-based specialist in the design, marketing, and manufacturing of air and liquid particle counters. In 1997, Malvern was also acquired by the Fairey Aviation Company, and Insitec Inc from Burnfield PLC.
The holding company changed its name to Spectris plc in 2001. In 2003, they acquired Bohlin Instruments Ltd, a Gloucestershire-based manufacturer of rheology and viscosity instruments. They also acquired Spectral Dimensions Inc, a manufacturer of infrared chemical imaging instruments, in 2006. Malvern received the 2006 Queen's Award for International Trade.
Viscotek Corp, manufacturer of chromatographic and laboratory equipment and supplies, was acquired in 2008, as well as Reologica Instruments AB, a Lund-based manufacturer of rheology and viscometry instrumentation, in 2010. Malvern received the 2010 Queen's Award for Innovation. The company was also listed as a 2010 winner of the annual Queen's Awards for Enterprise for its work measuring particles in fluids.
In 2013, they acquired NanoSight, a Wiltshire-based manufacturer of nanoparticle characterization instruments, and, in 2014, the Northampton-based manufacturer of Thermodynamic analysis instruments, MicroCal Instruments, was acquired from GE Lifesciences.
In 2017, they merged with PANalytical to form Malvern Panalytical Ltd. That same year, Malvern Panalytical released their X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer Epsilon, which was specifically designed for small spot analysis. In 2018, Malvern Panalytical unveiled Empyrean, the first fully automated multipurpose x-ray diffractometer; Claisse LeDoser-12, an Automatic Dispensing Balance; Morphologi Range, a new morphologically-directed raman spectroscopy system, and Epsilon 4, a benchtop x-ray fluorescence spectrometer.
Malvern Panalytical launched a new partnership with SCOTT Technology Ltd., a supplier of sample preparation equipment, in 2020. Their contract included engineering a fully automated robotic analytical system, incorporating fusion bead sample preparation, implementing X-ray spectrometry instrumentation, and developing thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) equipment. The company also joined partnership with Concept Life Sciences that year. Netzsch acquired Malvern Panalytical’s rheometer product lines in February 2020. In this acquisition, Malvern Panalytical extended Netzsch’s product portfolio by providing Kinexus rotational rheometers and Rosand capillary rheometers. In September 2020, Malvern Panalytical received the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) type approval, as a “full-protection” X-ray instrument, for its Aeris range of benchtop XRD diffractometers.
