Gerhart’s Laboratory & Metrology service line delivers in-house and on-site calibration, testing, repair, and certification across a comprehensive range of measurement domains. Leveraging a pressurized, climate-controlled lab and decades of hands-on experience, we ensure precise, NIST-traceable results across variables including mass, temperature, pressure, viscosity, and more backed by ISO 17025 accreditation.
Accurate measurement underpins reliable research, product quality, and regulatory compliance. Many labs and industrial settings struggle with outdated equipment, poor calibration, or fragmented service capabilities which leads to downtime, inconsistent data, and compliance issues.
