Krüss would like to announce our strategic alliance with Dr. Christopher Rulison and his new company, Augustine Scientific. Dr. Rulison started Augustine Scientific on May 6, 2002 in order to better serve Krüss customers’ contract laboratory needs. Augustine Scientific exclusively uses Krüss instrumentation for all surface tension and contact angle measurements. Dr. Rulison will operate in close partnership with Krüss’ International facilities to provide the best data analysis for our customers as a precursor to, or in lieu of, instrumentation purchases.

To support the advancement of the field of surface science, Krüss would like to welcome Christine Bilke-Krause as the head of our Hamburg, Germany application development laboratory. Mrs. Bilke-Krause brings to Krüss more than a decade of surface science expertise gained while studying at Humboldt University of Berlin and the University of Leipzig as well as several years of corporate surface science experience.

In addition Krüss continues to operate sales demonstration and application development laboratories in Charlotte, NC, and Palaiseau, France.
