In an effort to offer superior measuring technology, Pamas’s product range is based solely on measuring instruments for liquid analysis. Gas and solid particle counters has been manufactured in earlier years for clean room and size distribution analyses. Since several years, Pamas has been offering liquid particle counters only. Besides the use in offshore applications, Pamas particle counters are used in a variety of different sectors, including lubricating oil systems, water analysis, pharmaceutical applications, filter test rigs and component cleanliness.

Collaboration in Standardisation Committees

The professional expertise required in optical particle measurement is not only used in the development and manufacture of its own products: Pamas also makes it available to numerous standardisation committees. In these boards, Pamas experts actively contribute to work out sector-specific standards like for instance the standard ISO 11171 for the calibration of automatic particle counters published by the International Organization for Standardization in Geneva.

Success Factors for Business Development

Pamas employees have been crucial in the success of the company. Many of the employees have been loyally working for the company since the initial years and are part of the corporate image. When founding the company in June 1992, Managing Director Gerhard Schreck started with three employees. Today, he employs 51 people at nine company locations worldwide. At the head office in Rutesheim, 30 employees are working in the departments of R&D, production, application, service, administration, sales and marketing. 21 further people work in eight additional divisions in Belgium, France, Finland, UK, Spain, Brazil, USA and India.

In years to come, managing director Gerhard Schreck intends to maintain this course and continue with expansion. Relocation to a new company building is in the planning stage.
