About Bruker Daltonik GmbH
Bruker Daltonik GmbH, headquartered in Bremen, is part of the US-based Bruker Corporation and develops, manufactures and distributes instrumental analytical systems. The portfolio includes mass spectrometry systems for the life sciences and chemical analysis, mobile quadrupole mass spectrometers, bio-identification systems, ion mobility spectrometry, semiconductor-based radiation detection, infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and neutron activation analysis. The divisional headquarters of Bruker Detection for Safety & Defence is located at the Leipzig site; research and development, Application, manufacturing, sales and training are based there on around 15,500 m². In addition to system manufacturing, the company offers software applications, system integration (e.g. for vehicles and critical infrastructure) as well as sales and service. Customers include universities, research laboratories and industry, particularly from chemistry, pharmacy, biotechnology as well as the security and defense sector (CBRN). In 2017, the group generated revenue of more than USD 1.7 billion, of which Bruker Daltonics contributed around 25 %.
