Core offering

Breitfuss Measurement Technology designs and manufactures custom mobile measurement systems, including measurement vehicles and containers for environmental monitoring, public safety (NBC incident response), and automotive test-track applications. The portfolio also covers mobile laboratories, calibration gas generators, and proprietary data acquisition and analysis software (EASYCOMP, ANAVIS 32, ANAZENT 32, ABC Comp).

Product overview

Breitfuss Messtechnik GmbH is a family-run engineering company founded in 1983 that designs and manufactures mobile measurement technology solutions. The product portfolio comprises three core product lines: measurement vehicles (for environmental monitoring, public safety, and automotive testing), measurement containers (for air quality monitoring and mobile laboratories), and calibration/test gas equipment. These are complemented by proprietary data acquisition and analysis software including EASYCOMP (for integrating monitoring devices), ANAVIS 32 (station software), ANAZENT 32 (central office software), and ABC Comp (for NBC incident management). The company has built over 400 ambient air monitoring stations and serves public and private clients in Germany and Switzerland.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Aeroqual: Specialist in air quality monitoring sensors and stations with networked data management software. Comparable on ambient air monitoring stations and software platforms, though focused on smaller-scale fixed/stationary deployments rather than vehicle/container integration.
• TSI Incorporated: US-based precision measurement instrumentation company with strong positions in particle counters and airflow/anemometry. Overlaps on environmental and laboratory measurement instrumentation that Breitfuss integrates into mobile monitoring stations.

Direct peers

• Proengin: French CBRN threat detection specialist and Breitfuss's strategic distribution partner. Directly comparable as a CBRN sensor and integrated detection solutions provider for military and critical infrastructure, often deployed on the same vehicle/container platforms that Breitfuss builds.
• Drägerwerk: German safety and measurement specialist with deep overlap in NBC/CBRN detection, gas measurement, and emergency response vehicles. Directly comparable on public-safety measurement vehicles and gas-detection calibration systems.
• MSA Safety Incorporated: Global safety equipment company with strong overlap in fixed and portable gas detection, used by fire departments and military for hazardous atmosphere monitoring. Comparable on gas detection sensors integrated into public safety measurement vehicles.
• ENVEA (Groupe Environnement SA): European environmental measurement provider of ambient air, emissions, and process monitoring stations and software. Most directly comparable on air quality monitoring stations and centralized data management software (e.g., CEMS, AAQMS).

Broad incumbents

• SICK AG: German global leader in industrial sensors and environmental measurement. Highly comparable on environmental monitoring and gas/dust measurement instrumentation, but operates at much larger scale across many industries beyond mobile measurement systems.
• Testo SE & Co. KGaA: German measurement technology company providing portable and stationary instruments for emissions, HVAC, and industrial applications. Comparable on measurement instruments and calibration gas, but focused on handheld/portable products rather than integrated mobile platforms.
• Horiba Ltd. Global Japanese analytical and measurement instrument company with strong automotive emissions testing and environmental monitoring portfolios. Comparable on automotive test applications and stack/ambient air analyzers integrated into test cells and stations.
• KROHNE Messtechnik: Large German industrial measurement company where founder Gernot Breitfuss worked until 1979. Comparable on process and environmental measurement instrumentation, with a much broader product portfolio and global footprint.
