The facinating world of light and color inspired us to establish Mitaten Finland 15 years ago. Since that we have strongly been involved with the development of the surface technology, design and color of the industrial products. Design and surface quality like color and gloss are the first charateristics wich attracts the human interest for products. This is not all what is needed, a good lighting is essential.. A well designed lighting has become important all over Europe. The Comission has demanded to decrease the consumption of energy.The urban environment means technics and it is becoming more diffucult for mobile citizens to act safely. To be able to meet these challenges we need new light measuring technology and instruments. Mitaten has unprejudiced introduced to the market creative producers for light measuring instruments. The world needs companies like Gigahertz-Optik, Konica Minolta and TechnoTeam They know what light and color means for the human health and wellness and they are ready to meet the highest requirements. We offer instruments and materials for the spectrum UV-VIS-NIR-FTIR Besides the instruments we offer a large number of diffuse materials, paints and opal glass. We manufacture oem parts of PTFE and Opal Glass. Indivudual color standards are allso available for calibration of analyzers. The hectic humans in cities have to read fast a lot of information from many displays in all kind of light conditions. This is a challenge for the display and measuring instrument manufacturers. A new goniometric measurement method has been created for development of mobile information technology. With this new method the display manufacturers are aiming to create displays which can easily be read in bright light and in difficult viewing angles. The LEDs are now used more in the lighting and Gigahertz-Optik have designed an inspirateing range of new integrating spheres and goniometric benches. The Digital Visual light measuring cameras made by TechnoTeam is a must to design safer road and street lighting. Mitaten is proud to introduce this innovative measuring technology for the passionate light industry. We wish you a colorful Autumn
