About Bodenprobetechnik Peters
Bodenprobetechnik Peters GmbH (TechByP) develops and manufactures soil sampling equipment for agriculture, geotechnical engineering, and environmental analysis at its Quakenbrück site. The product range includes semi-automatic and fully automatic systems such as the Full-Core Retriever MP-1.90 (0–90 cm), the Mid Range MultiPRO MP-2.60 (0–60 cm), the TripleLayer Pro MP-3.90 with 3-Layer Separation, and the UltraDepth MAX MP-4.100 (0–100 cm, 4-Layer Separation). The range is supplemented by hydraulic and electric Scout devices, the Tow-behind system BOPROB III, the hydraulic Nitrate Tiller, and hand tools such as Göttinger Soil Corers, Drill Rods Ø22 mm up to 10 m depth, and N-min probes made of tool steel. Furthermore, the company offers vehicle conversions for pickups and UTVs with TÜV-certified frames, special trailers, Power Packs, spare parts, and training programs. Design and manufacturing take place at the headquarters in Quakenbrück; shipping is global.
