About BRIGON / KANE Deutschland
KANE Deutschland GmbH distributes measuring and testing instruments under the established BRIGON brand, which have been developed and manufactured in-house since 1966. The portfolio includes chemical-physical flue gas testers and complex electronic flue gas analysers for all measured values required at combustion systems, as well as devices for indoor air quality, gas leak and CO detection, pressure, temperature and voltage measurement, and automotive exhaust analysis. In addition to production, the company offers maintenance, repair and TÜV-certified recertification (BRIGON TRUST with 48-hour service) as well as a dense network of authorised service centres. Customers include the plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades, chimney sweeps, heating services, HVAC/refrigeration and heat pump industries, and gas installation. The quality management system has been ISO 9001 (DQS) certified since 1999; manufacturing and the instrument test bench have been audited annually by TÜV since 2004 (Oktanorm mark). The headquarters has been located in Heusenstamm since 2020; in 2021 BRIGON Messtechnik GmbH was renamed KANE Deutschland GmbH. As part of the internationally active KANE Group, the company also serves international markets via sister companies in England, France, North America, Central America and East Asia.
