High Tech Trophy

Exhibitors in each world bring new innovation products or technologies to the attention of visitors. The novelties of the nominees can be viewed live on the exhibition floor. On the map you will find the location of our High Tech Trophy per hall. This is also the time for visitors to vote for their favorite! You can cast your vote on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and the most votes will ultimately determine the winner of the High Tech Trophy per category.

Aemas | Laser-Based Radiocarbon Measurement Device

The C14 SCAR is a new, innovative method for measuring C14, used for carbon dating. Previously, C14 measurements were expensive, labor-intensive, time-consuming, and involved hazardous substances. The C14 SCAR is smaller, much faster, and user-friendly. The amount of C14 can be measured in 20 minutes with an accuracy of 1 part per quadrillion (PPQ)! This opens the door to low-threshold determinations of the age of materials. Not only for excavations, but also for definitively determining whether biofuel is truly biofuel—something that will become very important in the coming years. The composition of (bio)plastics and other materials can also be determined. It is even possible to distinguish CO2 emissions between those of biological origin and those from fossil fuels. With the C14 SCAR, it is finally possible to gain real control over what is and what is not of biological origin.

Burkert Benelux | ValveInsight

ValveInsight is an innovative software solution from Burkert that provides real-time insight into critical dosing processes without additional sensors. By utilizing existing Whisper Valve technology, the valve itself becomes an intelligent data source. This enables continuous process monitoring, automatic data documentation, and early fault detection without additional hardware.

With ValveInsight, users can identify process deviations earlier, proactively plan maintenance, and reduce waste of raw materials and production time. The solution increases the reliability of production processes, supports the sustainable use of materials, and contributes to higher product quality.

For this innovative contribution to sustainable process technology, Burkert received the Umwelttechnikpreis Baden-Württemberg in 2025.

Da Vinci LS | Secondary Oven

The Da Vinci LS Secondary Oven doubles the analysis capacity of an Agilent 8890 GC by adding a second, fully independent GC oven. Independent temperature programming enables simultaneous GC analyses and GC×GC applications within a single GC solution. Full integration brings all parameters and results together in a single method and database, with versatile configuration options as a compact and cost-effective alternative to a second GC system.

DENIOS | AmbiGuard®

AmbiGuard® – Environmental monitoring that recognizes risks before they arise

With the AmbiGuard®, DENIOS introduces an innovative IoT monitoring device that supports the early detection of critical environmental conditions and the automatic activation of warnings. Whether it concerns laboratories, production areas, chemical storage, or explosion-hazardous zones – the AmbiGuard® ensures greater safety for people, the environment, and installations.

The small device is equipped with multiple integrated sensors that measure important environmental values, including air pressure, temperature, position, and GPS location. This ensures that risks are continuously monitored and measures can be taken immediately when limit values are exceeded. Expansion with up to two external sensor modules is possible, for example for gas detection or electrical signal monitoring.

The measured data is transmitted in real time to the DENIOS connect IoT platform. When a value is exceeded, the system automatically sends warnings via SMS or email to pre-set recipients, allowing for quick action.

The AmbiGuard® can also be used in EX zones, where explosive atmospheres may occur. For this purpose, a specially certified EX version is available that meets the highest safety requirements.

This versatile innovation can be used independently or in combination with sensor modules – ideal for storage monitoring, machine control, and occupational safety in hazardous environments.

ELSCALAB | Bioreset

In cleanrooms, laboratories, and pharmaceutical production environments, rapid and reproducible biodecontamination is essential. The Amira Bioreset offers an innovative V-PHP solution that combines microbiological safety with ease of use, process reliability, and compliance with the strictest regulations.

The Bioreset systems work with vaporized hydrogen peroxide (V-PHP) and achieve a validated 6-log reduction of resistant microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores. Thanks to the dry, residue-free technology, rooms and installations can be treated efficiently.

What distinguishes the Bioreset is the combination of automation, reproducibility, and flexibility. The systems can be deployed in cleanrooms, isolators, RABS, biosafety cabinets, and R&D laboratories, and are available as both mobile and integrated solutions. This enables users to execute biodecontamination processes faster, validate them more easily, and reduce reliance on manual operations.

With Bioreset, Amira supports pharmaceutical and high-tech environments in increasing process reliability, limiting downtime, and complying with current GMP and Annex 1 guidelines. An innovative step forward in safe and efficient contamination control.

FORMULATRIX | FLOi8 PD

The new FLO i8 PD is a high-precision liquid handling platform designed to make complex laboratory workflows effortless and reliable by bringing to market positive-displacement pipetting over eight independent channels to deliver exceptional accuracy across volumes and applications. With an open API, modular integrations, and a compact footprint, the FLO i8 PD brings enterprise-grade automation to any lab without the typical cost or complexity. Its innovative self-calibration, intuitive software, and robust hardware architecture enable scientists to easily scale experiments, reduce errors, and accelerate discovery while maintaining full control and flexibility.

PerkinElmer | Avio 3000 ICP-OES

The new Avio 3000 ICP-OES from PerkinElmer is the first fully-fledged simultaneous ICP on the market that operates without the use of a cooler.

Coolers consume a lot of energy, take up space in the lab, and produce continuous decibels of noise. Additionally, the average lifespan of a cooler is 3 to 5 years, so it also has an ecological impact and causes unexpected downtime of the ICP analysis.

The impressive thing about this ICP-OES is that this innovation goes hand in hand with improved sensitivity, particularly in the UV range, can handle a high sample throughput, and delivers very robust results. In short, the newest and fastest ICP-OES on the market with the best performance, and without a cooler to boot.

Shimadzu | Nexera IC Ion Chromatograph

The Nexera IC is an automated ion chromatography system from Shimadzu for reliable analysis of anions and cations, focusing on water quality and routine QC analyses. The system combines a compact design with extensive workflow automation (including eluent management, sample pre-processing, start-up, QC, and reporting), reducing manual work and re-analyses and increasing daily throughput. Thanks to IC Solution and IC Support software, the Nexera IC is easy to operate, even for less experienced users, and suitable for regulatory environments.
