For more than 40 years Quantum Design (QD) has been providing technology solutions to researchers in the fields of physics, chemistry, biotechnology, materials science, and nanotechnology. Established in 1982 in San Diego, California, Quantum Design is the leading commercial source for automated materials characterization systems offering a variety of measurement capabilities.

QD instruments are found in the world's leading research institutions and have become the reference standard for a variety of magnetic and physical property measurements. Quantum Design instruments are cited in, and provide the data for, more scientific publications than any other instrument in the fields of magnetics and materials characterization. This means that each year, literally hundreds of scientific publications, advancing the science of materials, use data generated from QD instruments.

An essential part of providing scientific solutions to researchers around the globe is to also offer state-of-the-art instruments from other leading manufacturers. These manufacturers are chosen by Quantum Design not only for their innovative products, but also because they believe in the same level of customer satisfaction and support that scientists have come to expect from QD products worldwide.

With headquarters in the USA, and offices in Belgium, Brazil, China, Czech Republic, Germany, France, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Poland, Romania, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom, QD is strategically located in the world's key centers for scientific research, providing local marketing, sales, and technical support.

Quantum Design Singapore

In 2017, to better support our customers in Southeast Asia, Quantum Design Singapore was founded. Sales, service and applications support are provided by this office for QD’s Southeast Asia customers. The long term goal of QD Singapore is to introduce new technologies and leading instruments into the Asian market by partnering up with leading manufacturers who wish to penetrate this market and also with researchers who have great ideas and would like to commercialize their prototypes. Once a partnership is established, we work quickly to build market awareness by establishing technical capability combined with innovative marketing activities. In this way, we are able to quickly respond to the user's technical needs and provide an effective link between the manufacturer and Asian customers. Quantum Design Singapore has been very successful in bringing leading edge instruments from our partners into the Asian market in the areas of materials characterization, physics, nanotechnology and Bio science.
