About Hilgenberg
Hilgenberg GmbH, based in Malsfeld (Hesse), specialises in the manufacture and processing of highly precise special products made of glass. The company can look back on more than 100 years of experience and offers around 25,000 product variants to more than 3,000 customers worldwide. Its portfolio includes, among other things, NMR tubes – with constriction, thread, vacuum valve or thick-walled design made of borosilicate glass 3.3 or quartz glass –, NMR sample tubes with airtight closure, multi-cavity capillaries, Pasteur pipettes, Wilson spirals, micropipettes and amorphous fused silica powder for analytical purposes. One of its strengths is the customised development and manufacture of glass products and prototypes to customer specification, from single pieces to large series. The products are used in science, laboratory, industry, medicine and engineering.
