Farfield Sensors Limited is the proud winner of the National Measurement Award for 2003. The National Measurement Awards, organised by the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and Beta Technology, recognise outstanding achievement in the field of measurement and acknowledge the application of best practice and innovation in all aspects of measurement. The National Physical Laboratory is the United Kingdom's national standards laboratory, an internationally respected and independent centre of excellence in research, development and knowledge transfer in measurement and materials science.

Farfield's win comes in the Innovative Measurement category for our Dual Polarisation Interferometry (DPI) technology, embodied in our AnaLight® Bio200 instrument. The Innovative Measurement Award recognises the AnaLight®'s technical innovation, its impact on current industrial metrology and its development into a marketable product.

Company founder Dr Neville Freeman, the driving force behind the DPI technology, commented, "This is the latest in a stream of awards recognising Farfield's progress over the last few years. It is a tremendous acknowledgement of the level of commitment shown by the excellent team at Farfield. We are delighted to receive this prestigious award, especially as this year's competition saw the highest number of entries ever".

The AnaLight® Bio200 from Farfield Sensors is a benchtop instrument which can measure proteins changing shape at a resolution previously unimaginable, +/-0.001nm. It can be used to study structural aspects of the function of protein at the molecular level. The AnaLight® has been received by the life-science research community with universal acclaim and has secured sales in Japan, USA, Taiwan, Germany and the UK.
