About us
With the basic goal of developing the best parts and components possible for liquid control, FLOM was founded in October, 1990. Since then we’ve been manufacturing and selling our high pressure valves and other components, both stand-alone and OEM units, to the major players in the analytical device market.
The year after our founding we announced, and began shipping of, our new GASTORR line of super compact high performance degassing units, for sale both as OEM embeddables and stand-alones, to both the Japanese and overseas markets.
In 1992 we developed our first super compact Intelligent Pump. This incorporated a revolutionary and innovative pump mechanism which attracted much favorable comment, and the compact design led to its incorporation into many liquid chromatography OEM systems.
Over the years we’ve introduced a wealth of new products to the market, but in almost all cases our focus has been on the components; that has been our mission from the start. With this in mind we have always focused on making “Innovations that Change the Market Forever”. This central focus has won us mutually beneficial relations with many device manufacturers. On these relations we base our boast that we are very close to being the standard in OEM components for the analytical device market.
Currently we export to most of the major manufacturing countries, including North America, Europe, Australia and Asia, and we participate in major area exhibitions such as Pittcon in the US, where we show major global makers and dealers our latest designs and developments.
The analytical market needs ever faster, ever more high performance solutions, but at the same time we have all become concerned about the impacts of our activities on the environment-material recycling, for instance, is a major concern these days. So we promise not only to continue improving the compactness and reducing the weight and cost of our products, but also to offer recycleable products with reduced impact on our fragile environment. Developing these new, low impact, more efficient products is one way where we can make a wholly positive contribution to the wellbeing of our world.
