Core offering

Fungilab develops, manufactures and globally supplies quality-control viscometers and related accessories for dynamic (rotational) and kinematic (capillary) viscosity measurement. Its portfolio spans three rotational viscometer series (entry-level Viscolead, professional Master, premium wireless V-Series) and kinematic capillary viscometers (Cannon-Fenske, BS/U-Tube, Ubbelohde, Flow Cup, Hoppler), supported by temperature-control units, sample adapters, certified standard oils, and installation/calibration/maintenance services.

Product overview

Fungilab is a premier manufacturer and supplier of quality control equipment for viscosity measurement with over 30 years of experience. The company offers two main product lines: Dynamic Viscosity and Kinematic Viscosity measurement solutions. Dynamic viscosity products are organized into three rotational viscometer series tiers: Viscolead Series (entry-level), Master Series (professional), and V-Series (premium wireless). The kinematic viscosity line includes glass capillary viscometers (Cannon-Fenske, BS/U-Tube, Ubbelohde), Flow Cup viscometers, and Hoppler falling-ball viscometers. Both product lines are supported by a comprehensive range of accessories including temperature control units (Heating Circulators, Refrigerated Circulators, Thermocap), sample adapters (APM, LCP, HELDAL), the THERMOSPHERE high-temperature system, and certified Standard Oils for calibration. The portfolio serves diverse industries including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food, cosmetics, petroleum, paints, and coatings.

Broad incumbents

• Mettler Toledo: Mettler Toledo offers a range of density, viscosity, and rheology instruments (e.g., ViscoDrop) alongside its core precision balances and analytical platforms, competing with Fungilab in regulated laboratory QC environments.
• Thermo Fisher Scientific: Thermo Fisher's analytical instruments division offers viscosity and rheology solutions as part of a broader laboratory instrumentation portfolio, selling into the same pharma, chemical, and food QC customers as Fungilab but at much larger scale and breadth.
• Agilent Technologies: Agilent offers laboratory analytical instruments and consumables for pharmaceutical and chemical QC, competing indirectly with Fungilab where viscosity measurement is part of broader analytical workflows.
• Endress+Hauser: Endress+Hauser provides industrial process measurement instruments including in-line viscosity sensors, overlapping with Fungilab's industrial and chemical industry customers at the process-level rather than benchtop QC.

Emerging players

• ATAGO: ATAGO manufactures analytical instruments including viscometers and refractometers, primarily serving food, beverage, and cosmetics QC customers — a comparable vertical focus to Fungilab with a more compact product portfolio.
• Hydramotion: Hydramotion manufactures inline and process viscosity sensors for industrial applications, comparable to Fungilab's petroleum, paint, and chemical-industry applications but focused on process rather than benchtop QC.
• RheoSense: RheoSense specializes in capillary and microfluidic viscometers (VROC, microVISC) for biotech, pharmaceutical, and protein formulation applications, a niche overlap with Fungilab's pharmaceutical and chemical QC focus.

Direct peers

• Anton Paar: Anton Paar manufactures rotational and capillary viscometers (ViscoQC, SVM, Stabinger) and serves overlapping pharmaceutical, chemical, and food QC customers with comparable precision-grade instruments, positioning it as the most direct global competitor to Fungilab's portfolio.
• Brookfield AMETEK: Brookfield (now part of AMETEK) is the long-established leader in rotational viscometers and texture analyzers used in QC labs across food, pharma, paints, and adhesives — directly comparable to Fungilab's Viscolead, Master, and V-Series product positioning.
• Cannon Instrument Company: Cannon Instrument is a leading manufacturer of glass capillary viscometers (Cannon-Fenske, Ubbelohde, BS/U-Tube) and certified viscosity standards — directly comparable to Fungilab's kinematic viscometer line and ISO 17025/17034 standard oils.
