Company Profile

ElektroPhysik was established in Cologne in 1947 where it's founders laid the foundations for a “Made in Germany” success story.

From the beginning, ElektroPhysik has carried out pioneering work in the field of non-destructive coating thickness measurement and remains an indispensable partner for national and international standardisation committees, research institutes and universities.

One example is the in-house developed SIDSP© (sensor-integrated digital signal processing) and ultrasonic coating thickness measurement that enabled ElektroPhysik to live up their reputation as a driver of innovation within the industry.

The company produces in-house an extensive range of precision measuring instruments for their customers. The quality management system based on ISO 9001:2015 guarantees that ElektroPyhysik supports customers with instruments that meets their daily needs.

A vast network of subsidiaries and international partners guarantees that there is virtually no country in which ElektroPhysik is not represented.
