The Lignomat Story:

The handheld moisture meter Grete Heimerdinger chose to introduce to the United States was made by a German company called Lignomat. That company was started about 45 years ago by Horst Klinkmueller. Grete started off with 100 mini-Lignos and began contacting people in the woodworking field to see if they needed a moisture meter. At the time, she knew little about woodworking, having been a math and physics teacher in Germany."

Grete started selling moisture meters at small woodworking shows and got a lot of interest immediately. That's because the mini-Ligno is affordable, durable, reliable and accurate. In fact, it was the first small, affordable, handheld moisture meter for woodworkers introduced to North America. From there Lignomat has branched out and are now selling moisture meters to many different industries including: flooring, construction, restoration, cleaning, sawmills, furniture makers and architectural.
