You may already be aware that as of 23rd March 2010 Reologica Instruments AB has ceased trading and gone into administration. The company had been seeking additional funding to restructure and to continue as a going concern, but were unable to find a suitable source of investment.

Malvern Instruments has purchased from the administrators certain assets of Reologica Instruments AB to gain access to additional technologies and intellectual property to support the continuing development of Malvern's existing rheology business.

We understand that many Reologica customers will be disappointed to hear this news. However, you may still be able to receive after sales support from your local Reologica distributor whom you purchased the system from.

Customers in North America should contact ATS Rheosystems (http://www.atsrheosystems.com).
Customers in Japan should contact Jasco Corporation (http://www.jasco.co.jp)

In all other countries, Reologica customers should contact the distributor who they purchased the equipment from. All these companies are still operating and are unconnected with the demise of Reologica AB and are still trading.

If you have not already heard from your local distributor and you wish to contact us directly you can do so via the form below;

Malvern Instruments provides a range of complementary materials characterization tools that deliver inter-related measurements reflecting the complexities of particulates and disperse systems, nanomaterials and macromolecules. Analytical instruments from Malvern are used in the characterization of a wide variety of materials, from industrial bulk powders to nanomaterials and delicate macromolecules. A broad portfolio of innovative technologies is combined with intelligent, user-friendly software. These systems deliver industrially relevant data enabling our customers to make the connection between micro (such as particle size) and macro (bulk) material properties (rheology) and chemical composition (chemical imaging).

Particle size, particle shape, zeta potential, molecular weight, chemical composition and rheological properties measurements are now joined by advanced chromatography solutions (GPC/SEC), extending Malvern’s technologies for protein molecular weight, size and aggregation measurements, and synthetic polymer molecular weight and distribution. The company’s laboratory, at-line, on-line and in-line solutions are proven in sectors as diverse as cement production and pharmaceutical drug discovery.

Headquartered in Malvern, UK, Malvern Instruments has subsidiary organizations in all major European markets, North America, China, Korea and Japan, a joint venture in India, a global distributor network and applications laboratories around the world. www.malvern.com
