MaramaLabs are developing cutting edge spectroscopy technologies that provide solutions to a wide range of industries.

Our flagship product - the CloudSpec - heralds a new era for UV-Vis spectroscopy. The CloudSpec is able to analyse cloudy liquids, that were once a major stumbling block for UV-Vis. This new ability to obtain chemical information on cloudy liquids with unprecedented ease has the potential to transform the way industries analyse their samples.

MaramaLabs is targeting winery production as the initial application for the CloudSpec, where cloudy samples pose a challenge for rapid analysis of products during production.

The CloudSpec has potential applications in industries ranging from food & beverage, to wastewater and pharmaceuticals, all of which face cloudy liquids during their processes.
