With the right specification, you ensure the surface quality of your products and protect your business from surprises

Toponova is the expert when it comes to surface texture, assisting you in gaining control over your surface quality and protecting your business from surprises.

The key to ensuring surface quality lies in defining the right surface texture parameters and tolerances to restrict and control surface deviations that may arise during manufacturing, affecting product functionality and appearance. With proper specification, manufacturing processes can be optimized, enabling sustainable production.

Since 1995, we have successfully completed over 2500 projects for leading manufacturing companies, addressing questions concerning surface quality and surface texture. Our projects range from measuring surface roughness on a product to developing global corporate standards. Through active involvement in international standardization, access to our own measurement lab, a broad international network of expertise, external measurement labs, instrument, and software vendors, we collaboratively deliver the unique solutions you need. No question is too small or large; contact us, and we'll assist you!


Toponova actively participates in the development of standards used for specifying and controlling surface texture. Through Stefan Rosén's work in the SIS Technical Committee 507, working group 06, ISO GPS: Metrology and Surface Texture, we ensure that you always have access to the latest knowledge and tools.
