About the Company

Flusso

Fabless CMOS MEMS flow sensors

Flusso designs CMOS MEMS flow and environmental sensors for high-volume markets using a fabless model, outsourcing manufacturing to scale production. Its flagship FLS112 mass flow sensor and FLS122 air velocity sensor, along with plug‑and‑play modules FSE-112 and FSE-122, integrate on a CMOS MEMS platform and fit in small packages to measure mass flow, volumetric flow, differential pressure, and temperature. The company differentiates itself through a scalable production approach, Cambridge-origin sensor expertise, and a strategy that combines academic leadership with a global manufacturing footprint secured via a 2022 acquisition, while keeping its brand and team. Flusso aims to enable energy-efficient flow sensing in compact, cost-sensitive products such as smart inhalers, HVAC systems, and filtration units, and to grow its high-volume manufacturing capacity worldwide.
