What Airoptic does

Airoptic Sp. z o.o. is a privately held Polish manufacturer of tunable diode laser (TDL) gas analyzers, headquartered in Poznan and founded in 2010. The company sells under the GasEye brand, with a portfolio spanning four core product families — Cross Duct (Single Gauge, Multi Gauge, and Multi Gauge Multi-Point configurations for in-situ measurement), Extractive (Rack and Wall Mounted, with hazardous-area variants), OpenPath (atmospheric detection up to 1 km monostatic), and Probe (single-head in-situ probe up to 500°C) — plus the recently introduced GasEye Symphony (2025). All products share a proprietary multi-laser, multi-gas architecture that combines several semiconductor lasers in a single analyzer, with internal reference gas cells for autocalibration, etalon-effect suppression, automatic gain control, and integration with Modbus TCP/RTU, Profinet and Profibus control systems.

The company's core technology is single-line molecular absorption spectroscopy using semiconductor lasers operating from the near-infrared into the mid-infrared, delivering real-time measurements from ppb to percentage concentrations with sub-0.1 s response times. It sells across power (combustion optimization, denitrification, desulfurization, coal silo CO monitoring), chemical (process and safety monitoring), steel (blast furnace and coke oven gas), wood and paper, petrochemical, environmental, food, waste incineration and cement verticals, with cited deployments at customers including Sodra Cell Morrum (pulp and paper CO measurement) and channel partner M&C TechGroup North America. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ATEX Zone 1/21, IECEx, QPS and EN 14181 (CEMS QAL1-3) certifications, supports European Horizon 2020 and FP7 research programs, and is participating in the June 2025–May 2027 PIC4MIR consortium (with CSEM and Ligentec) to develop mid-IR photonic integrated circuit laser sources.

Airoptic operates a quotation-based, hardware-led revenue model complemented by commissioning, RMA and technical support services. All sales are routed through direct website inquiries or a worldwide distributor and service-center network, with prices set per quote and no public pricing disclosed. Select customer references (JC TEC, Sodra Cell Morrum, M&C TechGroup North America) and the disclosure that "several hundred" GasEye analyzers have been deployed globally since the commercial launch in 2016 suggest an installed base in the low- to mid-hundreds of units across industrial sites. The 11–50 employee headcount, ISO/ATEX/IECEx infrastructure and absence of any disclosed external funding rounds indicate a founder/management-controlled specialist manufacturer that has scaled organically from consulting services (2010–2015) to a branded product business since 2016.

Core offering

Airoptic manufactures tunable diode laser (TDL) gas analyzers under the GasEye brand for industrial process control, emission monitoring, and safety applications. Its product portfolio spans in-situ Cross Duct (SG, MG, MG MP configurations), Extractive, OpenPath, and Probe analyzer configurations using proprietary multi-laser multi-gas sensing technology. The company also offers multi-channel parallel analyzer systems and a separate line of services covering commissioning, online support, and RMA repairs.

Product overview

Airoptic is a high-tech company (ISO 9001:2015 certified, founded in 2010, Poznan, Poland) that manufactures tunable diode laser (TDL) gas analyzers under the GasEye brand for industrial process control, emission monitoring, and safety applications. The product portfolio includes four main product lines: GasEye Cross Duct (in-situ analyzers available in SG/MG/MG MP configurations), GasEye Extractive (extractive measurement in 19" Rack or Wall Mounted versions), GasEye OpenPath (open path atmospheric monitoring), and GasEye Probe (single-head probe-based analyzer). A flagship innovation is the world's first in-situ laser formaldehyde analyzer. All GasEye analyzers feature proprietary multi-laser multi-gas sensing technology, autocalibration with internal reference gas, and are designed for 24/7 continuous operation with no zero/span drift. The company also offers custom configurations and maintains a global distributor network.
