What Our Members Say
Advancing Photonics
Photonics is one of the most innovative key industries and places high demands on the organizations that represent its interests. SPECTARIS meets these demands in a compelling manner. As a strong industry association, SPECTARIS effectively represents the interests of its members in the political, business, and social spheres, while also promoting exchange and networking within the industry. We thank SPECTARIS for this commitment and greatly value our trusting collaboration.
Dr. Ralf Kuschnereit, JENOPTIK AG
The high level of commitment shown by SPECTARIS employees is exemplary and provides lasting support to the network.
With SPECTARIS, we have a partner at our side that represents the interests of our company as well as those of the photonics industry in Germany and beyond. We benefit from the outstanding technical expertise at their industry events and are happy to contribute our own knowledge. The high level of commitment shown by SPECTARIS staff is exemplary and provides lasting support to the network.
Simon Schwinger, Jabil Optics Germany GmbH
Great added value for our work.
German high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)—of which we are a part—have a powerful industry association in SPECTARIS, which brings together the interests of its member companies, represents them in political circles, and conducts active industry marketing both domestically and abroad. We are actively involved in the photonics and medical technology trade associations, where we actively contribute our interests and expertise and take advantage of SPECTARIS’s networking opportunities and various services (seminars, industry data).
Dr. Andreas Nitze, Country Manager for Germany, ASML Berlin GmbH
We benefit from this strong network.
We benefit from the strong network, the professional expertise, and the cutting-edge information that SPECTARIS provides to its members. Whether it’s events, specialist group meetings, or seminars—everything is of the highest quality and tailored to the members’ needs.
Michael Kneier, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, eagleyard Photonics GmbH
We are both a manufacturer of specialty light sources and a solutions provider.
We are both manufacturers of specialty light sources and solution providers. Our products cover the technically usable wavelengths of the invisible light spectrum. It is important to demonstrate the potential applications of specialty light sources and the innovations that technical light sources will enable in the future. An event like the International Day of Light serves as a bridge for communicating with users.
Dr. Christian Pels, Senior Vice President, Global Head of Innovation at Heraeus Noblelight
Membership in a strong association supports our successful growth.
In the century of photonics, laservision—a medium-sized manufacturer of laser safety products for the international market—particularly values active advocacy and knowledge sharing in a political and economic environment that is becoming increasingly dynamic worldwide. Membership in a strong association, with opportunities for close dialogue—especially within our Photonics Division—supports our successful growth in the key technology of optics.
Dirk Breitenberger, Managing Director of Laservision GmbH & Co. KG
A trusted voice for photonics in a complex regulatory environment
As a medium-sized photonics company active in the fields of quantum technology, life sciences, and measurement technology, we are increasingly confronted with complex regulatory and political frameworks. These range from export regulations to European legislation and rising environmental requirements. Spectaris has been a competent and reliable partner for us for many years. The association brings together the interests of the industry, effectively represents them in political dialogue at the national and European levels, and provides guidance in a challenging environment. This form of advocacy is of central importance, especially for technology-driven companies.
Dr. Thomas Renner, Executive Board Member (CSO), TOPTICA Photonics SE
National advocacy group puts the spotlight on the industry
Laser Components benefits from the industry association in a variety of ways. As a company, we value the broad exchange of information within the working groups—whether in human resources, marketing, or export control, customs, and foreign trade practices. For our industry, Spectaris also serves as a political voice—the Photonics Trade Association not only maintains constant communication with the BMWi and BMBF ministries but also provides information on European initiatives.
Patrick Paul, Managing Director of LASER COMPONENTS GmbH
In this way, SPECTARIS plays a key role in creating a reliable framework and promoting sustainable innovation and the industry’s long-term viability.
For over 80 years, Edmund Optics has been supporting its customers worldwide through two complementary business models: a marketplace for the fast delivery of its own products and those of leading brands, and the Advanced Manufacturing Service, which offers customized solutions from development through to series production. Partnerships and close collaboration are key factors in our success. This makes SPECTARIS’s work all the more valuable to us: The association fosters professional exchange, effectively connects the industry, and vigorously represents its interests to policymakers and government agencies. In this way, SPECTARIS plays a key role in creating reliable framework conditions and promoting sustainable innovation and the industry’s long-term viability.
Agnes Hübscher, Marketing Director for Europe, Edmund Optics GmbH
The association offers services that are perfectly tailored to our needs.
Our industry association, SPECTARIS, is a strong advocate for the interests of medium-sized, owner-managed companies like ours. It is just as important to us that the association provides a platform for open dialogue among member companies and offers services—such as industry reports and events focused on specific topics—that are perfectly tailored to our needs.

A Voice for Innovative Small and Medium-Sized Businesses
In the century of the photon, we need an advocacy group that is both strong and responsive. For us, as providers and consultants for the most innovative products on the global photonics market, this institution is particularly important. We know our interests (e.g., in the area of foreign trade) are in good hands, and we can focus on what matters most: satisfying our customers.
Andreas Börner, Managing Director of Laser 2000 GmbH
