Gerhardt

Founded in 1846 in Bonn, Germany, C. Gerhardt® has established a global reputation as a premier innovator in automated analytical systems for reference and rapid sample preparation. For over 175 years, they have pioneered laboratory technologies that define precision in nitrogen, protein, and fat analysis. As the authorised Australian partner, we provide local laboratories and quality control managers with direct access to these high-performance systems, which are essential for critical workflows within the Food and Feed and Laboratory sectors across Australia and New Zealand.

Gerhardt engineering focuses on the "Analytical Excellence" philosophy, automating complex preparatory steps to increase throughput while ensuring audit-ready data. Their systems, such as the industry-leading VAPODEST and KJELDATHERM series, are designed to reduce manual intervention and enhance laboratory safety by containing hazardous reagents. We support these advanced technologies with factory-trained engineers and local technical guidance to ensure your facility maintains the highest standards of analytical accuracy and operational efficiency.

Technical Applications for Gerhardt in Australia

In Australian agricultural research and food production, achieving precise nutritional labelling is a primary technical requirement. The range of Laboratory and scientific equipment available from this brand includes specialised Kjeldahl nitrogen determination apparatus for highly accurate protein quantification. For labs requiring high-speed digestion, their Laboratory heaters and Laboratory hotplates utilize infrared technology to accelerate sample breakdown without compromising temperature uniformity.

For facilities focused on oil and fat determination, advanced Extracting equipment for laboratories provides automated solid-liquid extraction following the Soxhlet method. Systems like the SOXTHERM allow Australian chemists to process up to 24 samples simultaneously while recovering over 90% of the solvent used. By combining these robust automated tools with our local support infrastructure, we help laboratories streamline their environmental and raw material testing processes with verified technical precision.
