About Rofin Australia

Rofin Australia Pty Ltd was established in 1978 as a Scientific Instrument marketing company. In 1988 the company developed its own range of products which it currently markets worldwide. With its corporate office and production facility located in Melbourne, the company uses optical technology to develop and market specialist products, systems and analytical instruments. Market sectors include industry, government, police and research laboratories. The company is involved in both import and export, with over 90% of its turnover coming from the sale of instruments developed and manufactured by Rofin.

Markets and Products

The Forensic Division of Rofin Australia Pty Ltd is particularly well known for its range of forensic science instruments. These include the cost effective PL400 with up to 20 bands; the Poliview® image capture and enhancement system; and the Polilight® PL500 which is recognised as the pre-eminent forensic light source for detecting fingerprints, document fraud, body fluids and other trace evidence.

More recently, the introduction of the Polilight FLARE PLUS and FLARE PLUS 2 has widened the range of forensic light sources. These LED based light sources are specifically aimed for use at scene of crime. Rofin's range of forensic instruments is used at more than 3,000 locations in 77 countries worldwide by leading agencies such as the FBI, CIA, Scotland Yard, Bundeskriminalamt, Japan National Police and the Australian Federal Police.

The company's extensive involvement over a period of 25 years in the forensic sciences has resulted in the establishment of many valuable associations in Australia and around the world.

Rofin's light sources have not been limited to criminal forensic applications. Art galleries have used these light sources as a diagnostic tool for more than a decade. Applications include the minute examination of the surface of paintings and other art works in order to assess treatment they might need for conservation purposes.

Rofin Australia also manufactures a range of products through its Light Guide Division. Rofin's polymer and liquid light guides are used for the transmission of light in a wide variety of industries and applications, including lighting, dentistry, UV curing, signage, endoscopy and solar power.

The common thread linking Rofin's Divisions and the majority of its extensive product range is optics technology, optical analysis and instrumentation.
