Results you can stand behind
Research results are only as good as the measurements behind them. Calibration with a traceable certificate shows your instruments were reading correctly when the work was done, which matters for publications, accreditation and audits.
Our temperature laboratory is NATA-accredited (accreditation No. 21447), and every calibration we do comes with a full certificate.
Research and laboratory projects we have worked on
A selection of jobs we have done for universities, research organisations and laboratories.
- Instrumentation for a university environmental test chamber.
- Data logging for a university corrosion research centre.
- Instrumentation for a biomass-to-fuel research project.
- Oxygen depletion monitoring around liquid nitrogen storage at a university.
- Field data logging for national research organisations.
- Calibration and instruments for pharmaceutical, biotech and testing laboratories.
Common questions from labs and universities
Is your laboratory NATA-accredited?
Our temperature calibration laboratory is NATA-accredited (accreditation No. 21447). Other instruments receive traceable calibration with a full certificate. See NATA-accredited temperature calibration.
Can you calibrate a whole department’s equipment at once?
Yes. Send us your asset list and we will quote the lot, then remind you when instruments next fall due.
Can you help instrument a research rig?
Yes. Tell us what you need to measure, how accurately and how it will be logged, and we will put together the sensors, data loggers and signal conditioning to suit.
Good to know
Equipment lists welcome
Send us an asset list or spreadsheet and we will quote the lot. We can also remind you when instruments fall due.
