Orthodyne: your expert in gas chromatography!

Instruments, detectors and analytical engineering

What started as a family business manufacturing wireless radio sets in the 1920s, Orthodyne has evolved into a whole new field of technology and innovation.

For almost 30 years, the company was involved in the wireless business. This dwindled in the early 1950s as transistor radios imported from America brought the curtain down on our activities. Transistor Radios Orthodyne

Consequently, Orthodyne began producing appliances to measure impurities in argon used for welding. These chromatographs were fitted with a detector using high frequency discharges to serve in steel plants in Liege (Belgium).

Afterwards, the company’s customer base widened to Germany and France. The structure and product range grew to include new high purity detectors for industrial and laboratory applications. Orthodyne played a ‘pioneering role’ in this field. Following this up by further broadening its product range and developing in-house analytical software's.

Today, from its headquarters in Alleur and with a workforce of about 55 people, Orthodyne exports around 95% of production. This can be achieved via national sales and distributors on every continent. In addition, Orthodyne works in cooperation with all major producers and suppliers of industrial gas throughout the world.
