WELCOME

Global FIA is an innovative technology company offering products, expertise, and system design for application of flow-based analysis techniques. When Global FIA was founded in 1992, its focus was on Flow Injection Analysis (FIA) and Sequential Injection Analysis (SIA). In recent years, Global FIA has taken this technology to a new level with a fluidics concept which greatly enhances functionality in sample manipulation and processing. We have coined a new term, Zone Fluidics (ZF), for the technology to reflect this fluidics concept. ZF is about moving zones of sample and reagents around by fluidics in narrow bore tubing to system devices where unit operations are carried out on sample to transform it into a measurable species followed by an analytical finish. We often describe ZF as a "fluidics robot". With the capability of performing complex sample processing operations and analytical measurements, it is much more versatile than its predecessors. A detailed description of ZF can be found in our Tutorial.

We have assembled a broad range of resources aimed at providing you with ZF solutions to your analytical and sample processing needs in laboratory, process, and field analyses. Our process analysis products include custom designed analyzers, sampling systems, and components. We have and continue to develop and design ZF and other fluidics systems, including FIA and SIA, for chemical, mining, refining, environmental, medical, biochem, pharmaceutical, and homeland security applications. We also provide expert consulting in fluidics sample handling and processing. Increasingly, our efforts are directed at miniaturized systems.
