Atomos has officially acquired Flanders Scientific (FSI), one of the most respected names in professional reference monitoring. Announced in April 2026, this move reinforces Atomos’ long-term commitment to precision monitoring across the full production pipeline—from camera capture through to final delivery.

By bringing FSI into its portfolio, Atomos is combining world-class expertise in color science and reference display technology with its own strengths in monitor-recorders, innovation, and global distribution. The result is a significantly more unified and powerful monitoring solution for filmmakers, broadcasters, and content creators worldwide.

A Complete Monitoring Ecosystem

The acquisition enables Atomos to span the full spectrum of monitoring—from on-camera and on-set, through live production, and into post-production and final delivery. This is a significant milestone in building a truly end-to-end ecosystem for professional video workflows.

Flanders Scientific monitors are widely trusted across post houses, broadcasters, and major studios where strict standards for color accuracy and image fidelity are essential. Their inclusion instantly elevates Atomos’ reach into the highest tier of professional monitoring.

Trusted Technology Meets Global Reach

Reference monitoring is defined not just by performance, but by industry validation and trust. FSI’s products have undergone years of development, testing, and adoption in environments where precision is critical. Through this acquisition, Atomos gains access to a portfolio already proven at the highest levels.

At the same time, Atomos’ global infrastructure strengthens distribution and support capabilities, enabling broader access to FSI products while maintaining the high standards professionals expect.

Flanders Scientific Remains Independent in Identity

Flanders Scientific will continue to operate as a distinct brand within the Atomos family. Its engineering philosophy, product design approach, and commitment to accuracy will remain unchanged—ensuring continuity for its loyal professional user base.

“We are incredibly proud to welcome the Flanders Scientific team into Atomos.”

— Peter Barber, CEO of Atomos

This approach ensures that the qualities that made FSI a trusted name—accuracy, consistency, and reliability—remain fully intact while benefiting from Atomos’ scale and ecosystem.

“The best work FSI has ever done is still ahead of us.”

— Bram Desmet, CEO of Flanders Scientific
