Measurement Technology and Calibration

We help industry to solve measurement problems, calibrate measuring equipment and operate an extensive programme of training and/or continuation training in measurement technology.

Measurements – often highly specialised in terms of both equipment and skills – are a vital part of every aspect of SP's technical work.

Our broad span of activities means that we have close contacts with many different sectors, putting us in a unique position to offer a wide range of measurement technology services, not only in our special-purpose laboratories but often also at clients' premises or in the field.

Methods of measurement and evaluation are constantly evolving and improving as a result of research, often in conjunction with universities, other research institutes or national standards laboratories in other countries.
