Based in Zurich, Switzerland, and founded in 2013 by CEO Florian Perrodin, and CTO Joël Busset, Distran AG, a.k.a. Distran is the manufacturer of ultrasound cameras used by industry professionals and inspection specialists for detecting gas leaks and discharges in multiple industries, such as in oil and gas, chemical, power generation, and composites manufacturing. In June 2023, Distran AG raised CHF 8.3 million in a Series B funding led by Swisscanto Invest by Zürcher Kantonalbank, with participation from ALIAD, Smart Energy Innovation Fund, and Zürcher Kantonalbank.

The company’s product line includes a wide range of ultrasound cameras, such as ultra pro / ultra pro X used for ultrasonic leak imaging for high-reliability inspections, ultra CE used for composite manufacturing to detect leaks on vacuum bags, and ultra ready, which is a protective wall-mounted box, compatible with ultra pro, ultra pro X and ultra CE.
