What Zimmer & Peacock does

Zimmer & Peacock (ZP) is a privately held ISO13485-certified contract developer and manufacturer of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, and in-vitro diagnostics, founded in 2014 and operating primarily from a 4,000 square meter facility in Skoppum, Norway. The company provides a vertically integrated technology stack spanning electrodes, assays, electronics, fluidics, cloud connectivity, and APIs, anchored by the SenseItAll (SIA) OEM potentiostat platform and the Djuli cloud-based data management platform. Product offerings include a broad catalog of screen printed electrodes (carbon, platinum, gold, and graphene variants), multi-analyte biosensors (glucose, uric acid, lactate, potassium, sodium, pH, cortisol, alcohol, nitrate, heavy metals, and others), wearable and microneedle sensor platforms, the Emma six-channel potentiostat, the Spectrum heavy metal sensor, and the FoodSense food and beverage quality platform. ZP also offers the ecFLEX wearable biosensor, the ZP Education Kit, and the ZP Accelerator and Clinical Trials service programs.

ZP monetizes through four primary revenue streams: hardware sales (sensors, electrodes, instruments, and developer kits priced from tens to thousands of euros), professional services including engineering consulting and proof-of-principle studies (~€360,000 per engagement), recurring subscriptions on the Djuli platform (Nano €796 to Standard €19,999 per month on 12-month commitments), and technology licensing including a €1M per year chloridization process license. The company serves a diversified mix of medical device companies, academic researchers, startups and entrepreneurs, food and beverage producers, environmental testing labs, and software/IoT integrators, reaching customers through its webstore, direct enterprise sales, and a global distributor and reseller network, with marketing driven by weekly ZP Developers Zone webinars, workshops, conferences, and a podcast series.

Core offering

Zimmer & Peacock is an ISO13485-certified contract developer and manufacturer of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, and in-vitro diagnostics. The company designs and produces screen-printed electrodes, potentiostats, microneedle arrays, and wearable biosensors, and operates its own SenseItAll sensor-development platform and Djuli cloud platform alongside engineering and clinical-trial services.

Product overview

Zimmer & Peacock (ZP) is an ISO13485 contract developer and manufacturer of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, and IVDs. The company's product portfolio centers on the SenseItAll (SIA) platform—a cloud-enabled OEM potentiostat with Bluetooth connectivity that integrates with their extensive range of screen printed electrodes (carbon, platinum, gold, graphene variants in hyper-value and value ranges) and multi-analyte biosensors (glucose, uric acid, potassium, sodium, pH, lactate, cortisol, alcohol, ATP, phosphate, nitrate, heavy metals). ZP complements hardware with the Djuli cloud platform for data management and analysis, and offers specialized platforms including FoodSense for food/beverage quality testing, Emma multi-channel potentiostats, and wearable solutions (ecFLEX, microneedle arrays, SIA Watch). Services include the ZP Accelerator Platform, clinical trials support, proof-of-principle studies, and tiered subscription programs. ZP operates a 4000 square meter manufacturing facility in Norway.
