Ionicon Analytik Ges.m.b.H
Eduard-Bodem-Gasse 3, 6020 , Innsbruck, Austria

IONICON is the world’s leading producer of trace gas analyzers with market-leading, real-time, single-digit pptv-level detection limits using the unique Proton Transfer Reaction – Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) and Selective Reagent Ionization – Mass Spectrometry (SRI-MS) technology.

IONICON Analytik was founded 1998 as a spin-off company of the University of Innsbruck, Austria commercializing an innovative technology called Proton Transfer Reaction - Mass Spectrometry. Since then we have been improving this leading-edge technology resulting in the development of several types of ultra sensitive high resolution online mass spectrometers for monitoring and quantification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in sub-pptv level concentrations.

Today we are the world’s leading producer of trace gas analyzers with market-leading, real-time, single-digit pptv-level detection limits using the unique Proton Transfer Reaction – Mass Spectrometry (PTR-MS) and Selective Reagent Ionization – Mass Spectrometry (SRI-MS) technology. Our product portfolio includes quadrupole MS and time of flight MS based instruments, industrial VOC monitoring solutions and custom built instrumentation, complemented by our own range of trace calibration devices and accessories.

Since 1998, we are serving our customers in many different application areas including atmospheric chemistry, environmental research and trace gas analysis (e.g. emissions in urban and remote areas, indoor spaces, vehicles), food and flavour science (e.g. analysis of coffee, olive oil, butter, cheese, wine, herbal extracts and aromas), industrial VOC monitoring (e.g. in waste incineration plants, chemical factories and production sites) and illicit substances detection (Explosives, CWAs, TICs). A special focus was given to medical and biotechnological applications where real-time monitoring of industrial fermentation processes, of synthetic gas production processes in the petrochemical industry and a medical device for real-time breath gas analysis for clinical applications were developed.

We also offer analytical services and are an active contributor to numerous international scientific research and training projects.

In 2013 we celebrated our 15th anniversary with more than 250 instruments sold. We manufacture our precision instruments at our company site located in Innsbruck, Austria.

Our company headquarter is located in "TWI" technology park, at the Eastern outskirts of Innsbruck in the centre of a business district, next to a motorway junction and excellent shopping and living areas.
