About Us
Thermocouples and resistance thermometers made in the UK
We make temperature sensors, mainly thermocouples and resistance thermometers. We are based in Chesterfield, Derbyshire and our sensors are used in a wide variety of industries all over the world. We’ve been manufacturing sensors since 1997, and have been a stable supplier to our ever increasing list of customers.
Unlike our competitors who make many types of sensor such as flow, pressure or strain, we focus solely on temperature sensor manufacture and supplying related temperature sensor components. We also offer a range of allied services including thermocouple calibration and platinum recycling.
