Since 1999 in the photonics market

Vadeno Optical Solutions supplies optics, optomechanics, lasers, spectrometers and optical design software to laboratories, research institutes and industrial R&D departments across the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.

We are a distributor, and we are the engineer you call before you order. Most requests that reach us are not part numbers. They are measurements: a wavelength, a sample, an aperture, a machine that has to fit the optics rather than the other way round.

The work is translating that into a component list you can buy. Sometimes the answer is a catalogue achromat that ships in two days. Sometimes it is a coating run, a configured laser module, or a bench that has to hold alignment on a factory floor. We say which, and we say what it will cost.

Vadeno Optical Solutions B.V. was incorporated in Apeldoorn in 2006. The people behind it have been specifying photonics components in the Benelux since 1999.

Excelitas Technologies / LINOS for optics, optomechanics and the Microbench and Nanobench systems. Oxxius for diode and DPSS laser modules. GoyaLab for handheld VIS and NIR spectrometers. Lambda Research for TracePro raytracing software.

We are a specialised local partner rather than a catalogue reseller, which is why a question about a coating curve or a damage threshold gets a real answer instead of a forwarded email.

The questions that come up most often are collected in the knowledge base: choosing between colour glass and interference filters, reading a damage threshold honestly, and where alignment drift really comes from.

We will help you find the right photonics solution, and say plainly when we are not the right supplier for it.
