About CRAIC

Microspectrophotometers designed, built, installed and supported in San Dimas, California — and the standards the rest of the field is measured against.

Making the finest tools for the finest minds.

CRAIC Technologies manufactures superior microspectrophotometers for science and industrial applications. We specialize in the UV, visible and NIR regions. Since CRAIC’s founding, our mission has been to become the leading provider of superior quality optical tools and superior support for the customers who use those tools.

What we make

Twelve techniques, one optical platform.

Microspectrophotometers that take a full spectrum from a sample smaller than a micron, UV-visible-NIR microscopes and Raman microspectrometers — designed, built, installed and supported in San Dimas, California.

Why you can trust it

The standards a microspectrophotometer is checked against are made here.

CRAIC Technologies is the premier manufacturer of standards for microspectroscopy, including the only ones traceable to NIST Standard Reference Materials made for these instruments. An instrument is only as good as the reference it is calibrated against, and that reference is built in the same place.
