Last week, IS-Instruments (ISI) was pleased to welcome local MP Tom Tugendhat to our Tonbridge facility. During the visit, he met members of the team and learned more about the advanced Raman spectroscopic technologies being developed within his constituency. He had the opportunity to see advanced Raman spectroscopy in action! Additionally, he got to meet […]

On 12 April, IS-Instruments team member Jessica Gabb will take on the London Landmarks Half Marathon (LLHM). She's raising funds for Macmillan Cancer Support through her JustGiving page. This isn’t just a run or part of a personal challenge. This is a cause that matters to her and to the ISI wider family. Why the […]

Fusion energy promises to be a safe, low-carbon and sustainable part of the world’s future energy supply. In recent years, progress in the UK and internationally has demonstrated this potential. At the same time, it has highlighted the significant scientific and engineering challenges that still remain. One of these challenges is developing accurate tritium measurement […]

Sustainable Medicines Manufacturing is one of Innovate UK’s flagship Grand Challenge programmes, bringing together major pharmaceutical companies, SMEs, automation specialists, academic centres, and analytical technology developers to reimagine how medicines are manufactured. Within this programme, the Sustainable Future Factory project led by AstraZeneca brings together more than a dozen partners from industry and academia. The consortium […]

The InSPIREmed project - Integrated Spectroscopy and Photonics for Increased Productivity and Resource Efficiency in Medicines Manufacture - is a major UK initiative aimed at redefining how modern pharmaceuticals are developed and manufactured. Funded through the Innovate UK Sustainable Medicines Manufacturing Programme (SMMIP), the project brings together a consortium of world-leading organisations to develop a […]

Last week, Jessica Gabb represented IS-Instruments at the 16th International Symposium on Fusion Nuclear Technology (ISFNT-16) in Knoxville, Tennessee. The event brought together global leaders in fusion research, fuel-cycle science, and nuclear engineering. It also offered the ideal stage to showcase the progress of our gas Raman instrument, which can detect and distinguish between protium, […]

When the Digital_Lyo project began in 2023, it aimed to tackle one of the most complex and energy-intensive stages of biopharmaceutical manufacturing: freeze-drying (lyophilisation). Two years later, the project has been completed. The results are shaping how biologic medicines of the future will be developed and manufactured. Why Freeze-Drying Matters Biologics include advanced medicines such […]

At IS-Instruments and i3D robotics, innovation doesn’t just happen in the lab or workshop — it’s built through collaboration, creativity, and connection. As sister companies sharing offices and workshop space, our teams of engineers and scientists work side by side every day, tackling complex challenges in optical instrumentation, spectroscopy, and 3D vision systems. That collaboration […]

The past few weeks have been busy for IS-Instruments (ISI). Our Business Development Manager, Jessica Gabb, attended two major international conferences. Each focused on advancing Raman technologies and their applications within different sectors. Tritium Users Group (TUG) 2024 – University of Manchester Jessica and Dr Rhea Sam participated in the 23rd annual meeting of the […]
