Bjørn Thorsen A/S has strengthened its collaboration with BYK-Chemie, by signing a distributor agreement with its subsidiary BYK-Gardner, thereby making us the official distributor of its line of instruments for color, appearance and physical test equipment, for Denmark and Iceland.
This addition to our already broad distribution portfolio enables us to offer the superior instruments from BYK-Gardner, a company that follows the Total Quality Management (TMQ) principle. The instruments are manufactured and validated according to international standards, guidelines and procedures: DIN EN ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 17025, ISO 14001. Testing and measuring instruments from BYK-Gardner can effectively evaluate the quality of color, gloss and appearance, as well as physical properties of paint, plastic and paper products, making them an important part of quality control.
BYK-Gardner has a strong focus on innovation and practical application. They are constantly working on developing new projects to objectively measure properties of various materials. Some of the latest additions to their range include:
• New gloss meters: intelligent gloss measurement with smart communication and brilliant new color display
