Astrotech Corporation, founded in 1984 and based in Austin, Texas, operates as a science and technology development and commercialization company worldwide. It is the parent company of three distinct businesses: Astrotech Technologies, Inc. (ATI), 1st Detect Corporation (1st Detect), and AgLAB Inc (AgLAB).

ATI is focused on developing and commercializing the AMS Technology, a proprietary platform mass spectrometry technology that is utilized in various industries, particularly in space exploration. 1st Detect develops explosives and narcotics trace detectors for use in airports, secured facilities, and borders, and offers the TRACER 1000 explosives trace detector to replace the devices traditionally used for such purposes. Meanwhile, AgLAB develops and manufactures AgLAB-1000, a mass spectrometer designed to be used in the hemp and cannabis market, as well as BreathTest-1000, a breath analysis tool used to screen for volatile organic compound metabolites in a person’s breath.

The company has a long history in the space industry, having previously been known as SPACEHAB, Inc. In 2009, it changed its name to Astrotech Corporation to better reflect the broadened scope of its services. Since then, Astrotech Corporation has maintained its commitment to leveraging the latest technologies to achieving its goals, which include testing and analysis services, product development and manufacturing, standards development, and technology licensing.

The company is active in both the public and private sector, providing services and products to clients in the space-based services, federal, defense, chemical, instrumentation and biomedical industries. Astrotech Corporation has established strategic alliances with a number of organizations, such as the National Space Biomedical Research Institute, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It also holds a number of patents associated with its various technologies, processes, and products.
