About Us

The right temperature worldwide.

With more than 350 employees, more than EUR 60 million in annual turnover and seven foreign subsidiaries, LAUDA is the global leader in the manufacture of innovative thermostatic equipment and systems for science, application technology and production, as well as for high- quality measuring devices. With more than 50 years of experience and a unique product portfolio ranging from compact laboratory thermostats to industrial circulation chillers to customised heating and cooling system projects with more than 400 kilowatts of cooling power, LAUDA is the only company that can guarantee optimized temperature throughout the entire value-added chain for its 10,000 plus customers worldwide.
 
Quality products from LAUDA keep temperatures constant to an impressive 5 thousandth °C or make targeted changes in an area spanning -100 to 400 °C. Through active cooling or warming, production processes are accelerated or, indeed, made possible in the first place. In such cases, LAUDA, for example, replaces the uneconomical mains-water cooling with environmentally friendly and cost-efficient devices or, alternatively, uses existing forms of primary energy such as thermal discharge. LAUDA measuring instruments determine the surface tension, tension limit and viscosity of liquids precisely.
 
As a highly specialised niche provider, LAUDA ranks either first or second in almost all future-oriented sectors. In the semi-conductor industry, all the renowned manufacturers and suppliers place their trust in LAUDA thermostats and heating and cooling systems. LAUDA quality products also enable both the research and mass production of vital medicines. In the growing medical technology market, recirculating coolers made by LAUDA cool patients and guarantee safe open heart surgery. LAUDA industrial circulation chillers provide reliable and cost effective cooling for printing machines, injection moulding plants and laser machining equipment. Further principle applications include material inspection, biotechnology and the cooling of laboratory instruments and machines. LAUDA thermostats are, naturally, also used in our own in-company measuring instruments. For example, in order to determine the viscosity of aviation fuel under real conditions at 10,000-meter altitude, the sample is cooled in the laboratory down to -45 °C.
 
Through numerous innovations and ongoing investment, LAUDA is sustainably improving its excellent market position and is growing both in the main European market as well as overseas.

Products

Our products provide precise temperature control, with accuracies of 0.005 °C, from -100 °C to +400 °C with up to 400 kW of cooling capacity. Developments and advancements in the science of temperature control are lead by LAUDA and their most recent introductions of the Integral XT and Proline Kryomat products. Beneficial mixes of extreme heating and cooling capacity, along with precise thermostating techniques, have positioned these two product classes at the forefront of modern temperature control technology.

Founded, and still headquartered in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany, LAUDA is the largest manufacturer of constant temperature instruments and equipment. LAUDA has more than 50 years of experience developing premium temperature control equipment and analytical measuring devices including static water baths, low and high temperature circulators, compact and large-scale chillers, industrial heating and cooling systems, automated solution viscosity devices and surface tension measurement instruments.

LAUDA ranks either first or second in all emerging market segments, including the growing LED, niche semiconductor and micro-reactor technologies.
