Scientifi c equipment – tailored solutions for your application
Leila Patalano – Product Manager Verder Scientifi c Today’s laboratories work in a new mindset. Turnaround times are shorter, workloads are higher, yet every result must be precise, accurate and fully traceable.
Verder Scientifi c supports this daily reality with application-driven workfl ows that help labs move quickly without compromising quality. As part of the globally active Verder Group, we combine a worldwide network of subsidiaries, distributors and manufacturing sites to serve customers locally while sharing expertise internationally.
From sample preparation and particle characterisation to heat treatment, elemental analysis, materialography and pharmaceutical testing, our goal is simple: to give you tailored solutions that fi t your application, so your lab can stay fast, reliable and ready for the next challenge.
All these competencies are concentrated within one group. This means you can discuss milling, surface area, stability, heat treatment and tablet testing with a close network of specialists who understand how the steps connect. The result is a professional support from experts who live in these applications every day.
Verder expert talk at Forum Laboratory & Analysis
One expert partner, many complementary technologies
Within Verder Scientifi c, specialised brands cover key steps along the customer needs:
• Carbolite for heat treatment: furnaces and ovens for drying, debinding, calcination, ashing, sintering, high- temperature and controlled atmosphere processing
• ELTRA for elemental analysis: fast determination of C, H, N, S, O and related parameters from different sample matrices
• QATM for materialography & hardness testing: preparation and testing of metals, coatings, welds, components as well as battery parts, micro-electronics and geological samples.
• Retsch for milling & sieving: sample homogenisation and particle size reduction from fragile pharmaceuticals to tough building materials
• Microtrac for particle & pore characterisation: particle size and shape (wet/dry), dynamic and static image analysis, zeta potential and colloidal stability, surface area (including BET), pore geometry models, porosity and true density via gas adsorption and pycnometer
• Erweka for pharmaceutical testing: dissolution, disintegration, hardness, friability and powder testing for solid dosage forms
“Materials for the Future: From Battery Innovation to Aerospace-Grade Performance” Thursday 26th March 2026 – 11:00 PM
This talk highlights how advanced sample preparation, heat treatment, particle and pore characterisation and materialography support the development of new materials, from high-performance battery components to demanding aerospace applications.
Pharma, biotech & MedTech: linking dosage form,
particles and powders In pharma and biotech, every deviation has a cost. Raw material variability, insuffi cient understanding of particle properties or limited stability data can quickly lead to investigations and delays. Verder Scientifi c helps keep critical material attributes under control from development to routine QC.
From fi nished dose to root cause
Erweka systems cover dissolution, disintegration, friability and hardness testing in line with major pharmacopoeias, with options for autosampling and online UV/UV-Vis or HPLC to streamline release and stability testing. Powder testers complement this by characterising fl owability, cohesion, compressibility and density, so issues like capping or lamination can be traced back to measurable powder behaviour.
Raw materials & development
Retsch mills and sample dividers ensure representative, reproducible sample preparation of APIs and excipients, including cryogenic grinding for temperature-sensitive materials and sieving for particle size checks. High-energy mixer and ball mills also support co-crystal screening and mechanochemical synthesis as solvent-free routes to new solid forms.
“Once we could see how particle size, surface area and tablet hardness all fi tted together, troubleshooting went from weeks to days,” as one development scientist summed it up. That’s the effect of having Erweka, Microtrac and Retsch data telling the same story.
Particles, surface area
& stability Microtrac solutions provide particle size and shape analysis from nanometer to millimetres, helping you link PSD and morphology to fl ow, blend uniformity and dissolution. Zeta potential and stability measurements characterise suspensions and nano-dispersions without waiting for long storage trials, while gas adsorption systems deliver BET surface area, pore size distribution and true density for APIs and excipients that rely on well-defi ned surface properties.
