Neosens was founded in 2001 in Toulouse, France by Laurent Auret after conducting a successful trial on the use of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) for sensor applications at the ELTA - AREVA Group in partnership with the LAAS-CNRS (Laboratoire d’Analyse et d’Architecture des Systèmes). Since then, Neosens has acquired a unique technology from INRA for the measurement of biofilm to further strengthen its product line.
Today, based on its expertise in electro-chemistry and microelectronics, Neosens develops and markets a range of innovative sensor solutions based on MEMS technology. The products include, among others, in-situ sensors used to measure dissolved oxygen levels in real-time, and sensors that continuously monitor biofilm and scale formation in heat exchangers and process piping. Neosens, a pioneer in its field, offers a new generation of solutions that enable the continuous monitoring of water quality for industrial applications such as cooling systems, pulp & paper, food & beverage processing, and ultra-pure water. “In the water industry, the monitoring of pollutants, such as micro-organisms and mineral deposits, is paramount. In addition, the consumption of chemicals needed to clean water systems must be reduced to limit the impact on the environment. Neosens has the answer to this problem by continuously monitoring the growth of biofilm and thereby measuring the efficiency of cleaning processes. The Company announced in February the closing of 2.5M€ in capital funding. The group of investors, led by SOFINNOVA Partners, includes the Belgian fund, Capricorn Cleantech Fund and GALIA Gestion, and the original investors, ICSO Private Equity and IRDI.
