Fluigent

Fluigent is a pioneer and leader in pressure-based microfluidic control systems, serving both the research and industrial OEM sectors. The company's technology platform replaces traditional syringe pumps with more precise, automated, and contamination-minimizing solutions, enabling advancements in areas like cell biology, diagnostics, and organ-on-a-chip models. With 20 years of expertise, 40 employees worldwide, and a portfolio of 20 patents, Fluigent has established a global customer base through direct sales and a network of distributors. Its business model focuses on selling instruments, components, and providing custom OEM development services to accelerate fluidic system integration.

Pressure-based microfluidic flow control systems. Uses precisely regulated air pressure (rather than mechanical displacement) to drive fluids through microchips, offering high precision, rapid response, automation, and minimal contamination. Platform includes controllers (e.g., OxyGEN), sensors, valves, and software for protocol building and real-time monitoring.

Competes with other specialized microfluidic companies (e.g., Elveflow, Dolomite, Micronit) and faces potential competition from large life science tool vendors. Differentiates through its pioneering pressure-based technology, broad application expertise, and dual focus on research and custom OEM solutions.
