Nikon

With more than 100 years of experience in this field, Nikon has always been at the forefront of optical and technological innovation, promoting creativity and reliability as part of the company’s global mission. Nikon’s history began back in 1917, when three Japanese optics manufacturers joined forces to form a company known as Nippon Kogaku KK (“Japanese Optics”), which produced precision optical glass. In 1925, the brand expanded by producing its first microscope with a rotating head and interchangeable lenses—the Joico microscope.

Today, Nikon is a world-renowned brand that has firmly established itself as a leader in the optical instruments market and is the only company that manufactures microscopes using its own glass, ensuring the highest quality standards throughout the entire production process. Nikon’s wide range of microscopic systems includes products for the educational, clinical, materials science, and research markets, as well as for the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.
