Water analysis reagent

For more than thirty years, Tintometer in Dortmund has been manufacturing reagents for water testing and marketing these reagents around the world under the brand name Lovibond. Different forms of reagents are required for different fields of application. It is fair to say that, in terms of quality, tablet reagents are the best form of reagent. Thanks to production tech-niques of the type used in the pharmaceutical industry and stringent internal quality standards, Tintometer is able to produce tablet reagents for water testing with a guaranteed shelf life of 5 or 10 years. These tablets are individually sealed in high-grade, polyethylene-coated aluminium foil and represent the reagent form of choice for everyday water testing applications. Users in different countries traditionally prefer forms of reagent other than tablets. Lovibond powder reagents are designed to allow fast and easy testing. Powder reagents are packed in aluminium foil for a wide range of applications and producers represent an alternative reagent form recently introduced by Tintometer. Last but not least, liquid reagents are indispensable for many testing tasks. Testing for substances that are hard to detect, for parameters like total nitro-gen, or for the aggregate parameter COD, require the use of a wide range of reagents in a form that permits more “aggressive” sample processing. The Lovibond programme is rounded off by reagent tests and tube tests, making Tintometer GmbH the only reagent producer in the world that offers a complete range of reagent forms.
