## Summary

The University of Brighton has completed a public procurement process for a Heat Flow Meter, which is essential for measuring the thermal conductivity of non-homogeneous materials, such as composite insulation materials. This procurement falls under the category of laboratory, optical and precision equipment and was conducted through an open procedure, with a contract value of £48,338. The contract period commenced on 19 July 2022 and will last until 19 July 2027. The procurement process officially concluded on 10 June 2022, with the tender being awarded to Netzsch - Gertebau Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in laboratory and precision equipment. Companies that manufacture or supply thermal conductivity measurement tools, particularly those aimed at the construction or materials industry, would be well-suited to engage in similar future projects. Given the University’s commitment to reliability and adherence to international testing standards, potential suppliers could benefit greatly by enhancing their visibility in this sector, especially if they are small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

## Notice

The University seeks a Heat Flow Meter with a proven reliability for the measure of thermal conductivity of non-homogeneous materials in the thermal conductivity range of 0.002W/mK to 0.35 W/mK, such as composite insulation materials (including for example Vacuum Insulated Panels). The equipment is required to perform testing in accordance with ASTM C518 and ISO 8301.
