GL Optic based in Weilheim/Teck, Germany has launched operations as a separate business unit. Following a spin-off from parent company Just Normlicht, the brand name has now become an independent entity. The move is the result of a sharp increase in demand for all types of light measurement instruments and measurement systems, as well as the positive response to the GL Optic brand.

In the realm of LED measurement and testing, a lot of attention has as of late been given to the development of small, handy size devices, allowing  for the quick and easy assessment of any light source. GL OPTIC has therefore been continually developing its range of hand-held state-of-the-art spectrometers. Yet the need for top performing spectrometers in industrial or extensive laboratory settings has by no means diminished. The growing number of quality requirements introduced by new standards for lighting has made it necessary to ensure constant control of LED products as they are being produced.

Analytik, leading suppliers of innovative analytical instrumentation, partner with German company, GL Optic, to supply handheld and laboratory spectrometers and integrating spheres for next generation lighting quality control and research applications. Analytik report on The A+ Group using the GL SPECTIS 1.0 touch light measuring spectrometer for workspace lighting assessment and LED retrofit projects.
