Malvern Panalytical. We’re big on small™

Making big things happen for our customers

We partner with many of the world’s leading companies and institutions to help them discover, design, and improve the material and life sciences solutions their customers rely on daily to live, work, and stay healthy. We unleash the power of small things to make big things happen for our customers. We’re big on small.

Malvern Panalytical has been at the heart of material and life sciences for more than 80 years. By enabling our customers to understand the small things invisible to the human eye - the chemical, physical, and structural make-up of the products and materials modern societies rely on every day - we empower them to make big things happen; from improving the energies that power our lives and enhancing the concrete we build with, to developing the vaccines that treat us and making the foods we enjoy taste better.

We partner with our customers to make their solutions possible through the power of precision measurements, our expertise, trusted data and insights.

Our customers are at the center of everything we do. They trust our precision instruments to get the data and insights they need to make their solutions possible and impactful. They also value the knowledge, rigor, and creative thinking of our experts to shape discovery methodologies, analyze results, and recommend solutions.

Our journey to Net Zero by 2040

We know a thing or two about scientific measurement, so we’re fully aware of the scale of the Net Zero challenge. Our interim targets are based on the best possible science and aligned to a 1.5 degree warming scenario. 

We will be net zero in our own operations by 2030 – and across our entire value chain by 2040. For more information about our Sustainability initiatives, please visit our Sustainability page.

Please take a look at our Journey to Net Zero brochure to read how we will achieve our targets.
