GrainSense

GrainSense offers an innovative grain analysis solution featuring its patented NIR sensor. This sensor transforms traditional NIR equipment into a compact, affordable format, significantly reducing costs compared to conventional equipment. The GrainSense solution is tailored for industrial, trading, research, and farming customers, providing instant grain quality analysis.

GrainSense technology quickly measures protein, moisture, oil, and carbohydrate contents from just a few kernels or flowing grain without stopping the grain flow. It is applicable during harvesting, processing, or storage—anytime grain quality measurements are needed. The same laboratory-accurate sensor is used in all GS FLOW products, bringing laboratory precision to farms, mills, breweries, combine harvesters, and more. The GS FLOW sensor is also available as an OEM product, allowing companies immediately take advantage of understanding the exact grain quality, or with automated moisture measurement systems to extend their capabilities to measure additional parameters. The handheld unit is portable and popular among farmers, traders, researchers, and other professionals in the grain industry.

How it all started

In the early years of the 2010s, the VTT (Technical Research Centre of Finland) initiated a project aimed at transforming traditional, bulky Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy lab equipment into a convenient handheld format. The project's key innovation involved using an integrating sphere combined with absorbance spectroscopy and developing a low-noise, low-power consumption NIR photo detector suitable for ambient temperatures. By the end of 2014, GrainSense was established as a spin-off from VTT. In 2016, GrainSense began its operations and has since successfully conducted business in the global agriculture sector. Nowadays GrainSense has expanded its business beyond the farmer segment to include laboratory and industrial solutions.

GrainSense has built a partner/distributor network across Europe, Asia, North America, Latin America and Australia. There are over 2500 GrainSense Analyzers in use in over 40 countries around the world
