Porometer’s MP² technology is officially patented
Porometer’s MP² technology (Multistage Pressure Process) — now officially patented — takes precision porometry to a new level.
Designed for the POROLUX™ Revo series, the MP² technology introduces intelligent pressure control that ensures each data point is taken at the right time and at the right pressure — for the most accurate and reproducible pore size measurements available today.
Patented MP² technology
MP² stands for Multistage Pressure Process. This innovative technology ensures a smooth pressure increase during the measurement and speeds up the process of reaching flow and pressure stability.

Why we patented the MP² technology
We patented the MP² technology to both protect and celebrate a breakthrough that truly advances the science of porometry.
By redefining pressure control, the MP² technology ensures flawless step stability and keeps on speed throughout the entire process run .
It’s not just a technical enhancement — it’s a milestone in data precision and instrument reliability.
Kees van der Kamp, General Manager at Aptco Technologies underlies the importance of this new patent:
“Having our MP² technology officially patented is a recognition of the deep scientific understanding and engineering precision that our team has developed in-house. It underlines the seriousness with which Porometer approaches innovation — every detail of our instruments is built on knowledge, experience, and a drive for accuracy.”
What the MP² technology does
The MP² technology intelligently manages the pressure build-up and stabilization throughout the measurement process:
Gradually slows the pressure just before each selected point
Keeps every step stable and uniform
Accepts data points only when the flow and pressure are perfectly steady
Wet, dry and half-dry curve b) pore size (fitted) distribution of a polymeric flat sheet membrane both measured on the POROLUXTM Revo
This ensures results that are consistent, reliable, and build a solid fundament of knowledge about the material.
