Frank-PTI and Viscomat Laboratory Equipment
Since 2022, ProBoreal has been the official Finnish distributor for the German-Austrian company Frank-PTI GmbH.
We deliver, install, and commission the equipment, provide user training, and offer Finnish-language support, local service, and general spare parts from Jyväskylä, in middle of most mills in Finland.
Frank-PTI supplies a full range of traditional laboratory instruments for the pulp and paper industry, as well as several unique solutions of its own.
Its core strengths include fiber and pulp testing instruments, while the range of dry-sheet testing devices is also extensive.
Frank-PTI instruments are designed to comply with relevant measurement standards — even the Modular Line automatic testing system performs measurements in essentially the same way as manual methods.
Frank-PTI also provides measurement equipment for testing other materials such as plastics, textiles, leather, composites, thin films, and construction materials.

ProBoreal also represents the Swedish company Lagge AB, manufacturer of Viscomat instruments — regarded by many pulp mills as essential laboratory tools for monitoring pulp quality.
For Viscomat II, we also provide full product support, including training, maintenance, and spare parts

ProBoreal’s representation of PulpEye has come to an end.
The representation agreement between PulpEye AB and ProBoreal Oy ended on January 1, 2025, when PulpEye became part of Andritz.
ProBoreal therefore no longer represents or sells PulpEye fiber analyzers or RedEye chemical analyzers, and we no longer supply spare parts for these instruments.
