Science for the real world

PANalytical was founded half a century ago as part of the Philips organization. We quickly gained a growing reputation for utilizing highly scientific X-ray analysis technology in order to add proven
and demonstrable added value for customers in science and industry. 


The process of harnessing science to real world needs is central to our activities, and is achieved by working closely together with scientists and professionals in research and industrial laboratories.  


This open and interactive approach of 'Winning by Sharing' gives us a unique ability to anticipate and respond to the constantly changing demands of society. 


Better lives, worldwide

Consequently, we see our X-ray fluorescence and X-ray diffraction systems being used in more and more industries – in order to deliver ever-improving levels of accuracy and efficiency.


Together with our customers around the world, we are contributing greatly towards the drive for better housing, safer cars and airplanes, more effective medical therapies, easier and cheaper communications, and a healthier environment. Every day, billions of people use an incredible range of products that have been improved with the help of materials characterization through X-ray analysis.
