German Engineering is built to last. We are looking for the oldest functioning Retsch machine in the USA.

Do You Have a Piece of History?

We know Retsch mills are workhorses. Some of you have been running the same sieve shaker or grinder for 20, 30, or even 40 years. To celebrate Verder Scientific's 25th Anniversary in the US, we want to honor that durability.

The Reward: If you have the oldest verified operating machine, we will swap it out for a BRAND NEW modern equivalent.
