Milestone has rapidly grown and today it provides the scientific community with the most advanced microwave units for research and quality control.

We devote ourselves to develop an instrumentation which combines the best performance with the maximum safety for the user.

We have offered a lot of different products during these years of commitment.

Today, thousands of our instruments are used by laboratories all over the world. In our laboratories our technicians continuously develop innovative units and search for new possible applications.
This operating philosophy has enabled Milestone to develop an unmatched portfolio of patents, and a broad range of microwave systems with superior performance capabilities and maximum user safety.
When we started, Milestone introduced a new concept for sample preparation: the use of microwave technology for digesting samples for AAS, AES, ICP, and ICP-MS.

Why microwave sample preparation?

• Short digestion times. Minutes, not hours!
• No loss of volatile elements. Complete recovery of mercury, arsenic, cadmium, etc.
• No acid fumes. Improved laboratory working conditions.
• No sample contamination from the environment.
• No cross contamination.
• Low blanks, as minimal quantities of acids are used.
• Unattended operation.
• Easily reproducible and fully documented methods.

Milestone is an acknowledged leader in microwave technology.
