In a few years the Thuringian company grew to national and international markets. 1994 bought Analytik Jena shares in IDC devices Development Company in Long Meadows ( South Thuringia ). From now on first own devices for environmental and water analysis in collaboration with IDC were developed. A year later the business have earned Analytik Jena laboratory analysis technology of Carl Zeiss Jena GmbH. Thus, the Group had a complete range of production, research and development, design and sales for atomic absorption spectroscopy and UV VIS spectroscopy. Thus the way was founded as a " distributor of analyzers " company was started in the direction of its own products.

1997 came with the Docter Optic ice rink GmbH - once from the traditional works of Carl Zeiss Jena GmbH emerged in ice rink - another production site added.
