Retsch

The company was founded in 1915 by F. Kurt Retsch. Shortly thereafter, he applied for his first patent in the field of comminution technology: a mortar mill that became known worldwide as the "Retsch Mill. " Until then, samples were crushed manually in hand mortars in the laboratories. The invention of the first mechanical mortar mill earned the company an international reputation in research and science. Today, with locations in Germany, USA, China, Japan, India, South Africa, France, Italy, Benelux, Russia, Great Britain and Thailand, RETSCH is the world's leading supplier of shredding and particle measurement solutions with an export share of 80%.
