DKSH GPM

Our Business Line Research sells and distributes GPM anthropological instruments from Switzerland.

GPM anthropological instruments are high-precision instruments, manufactured for decades to the highest levels of Swiss quality craftsmanship.

These instruments are exported worldwide and are based on the anthropology developed by Rudolf Martin. Ongoing work on new technology and development ensures an assortment of instruments that are always up-to-date and meet every demand.

The product portfolio includes 41 of these high precision anthropometric instruments, which are applied in the field of osteology (the scientific study of bones) and somatology (the study of the human body as a branch of anthropology). Osteological approaches are frequently applied to investigations in disciplines such as vertebrate paleontology, zoology, forensic science, physical anthropology and archaeology.
