Our purpose is to help make the world a safer and less uncertain place through accurate, traceable measurements that help businesses streamline their processes and reduce their burden on the environment.
For a safer and less uncertain world
Accurate measurement is the glue that holds our communities and societies together, and it affects us all. It gives us confidence that the medicine we take is safe, the water we drink is clean, and the food we eat can be trusted. The industries behind these vital elements of our everyday lives rely on accurate measurement to ensure the safety of their processes, to improve efficiency, and to minimize emissions and waste.
Our comprehensive ecosystem of calibration solutions help to create safer and less uncertain world by ensuring that our customers’ measurement data is trustworthy and traceable, supporting smarter and more sustainable business.
Calibrating process instruments on a regular basis using Beamex technology helps our customers to minimize production and energy losses and optimize their processes to ensure they are as efficient as possible. Regular calibration also ensures consistently high product quality.
Sustainability is a core component of the Beamex design philosophy. We want our customers to continue using their Beamex products for many years, so they are designed to have a long service life and to be as easy as possible to repair, maintain, and upgrade. This supports the circular economy and conserves valuable natural resources.
It is estimated that the decisions made at the product design stage directly result in 80% of a product’s environmental impact and 90% of its manufacturing costs. Extending the life and usability of electrical products is one of the most effective ways to reduce our carbon footprint and conserve valuable, irreplaceable natural resources such as rare earth elements.
Circular economy
Beamex products are designed to support the circular economy by being reliable, easily maintainable and repairable, compatible with a wide range of other plant equipment, and easily upgradeable. These factors ensure a long product lifecycle, reduce waste, and help to conserve natural resources.
Reliable
We speak about Beamex products being ‘sustainable by design’ because they are designed and built to be reliable, using only the highest-quality parts and following a stringent quality-control process during manufacturing that ensures they have a long operational lifespan.
We provide professional recalibration services and convenient service plans to help you keep your calibration equipment operating at its full potential throughout its lifetime.
We also provide a wide range of spare parts for Beamex products including complete spare-part kits, making it easy to extend the lifespan of your equipment and ensure it remains in good working order.
Our skilled service technicians can repair Beamex products to the highest standards of quality to ensure that they continue to serve you for many years.
Our versatile products can be used to perform everything from pressure to electrical and temperature calibrations and more and can be delivered with HART, Foundation fieldbus, and Profibus communication capabilities.
The versatility and longevity of Beamex solutions can be enhanced by adding hardware and software modules including firmware updates. This enables Beamex products to be used in a variety of different applications over their lifetime, avoiding the need to purchase new equipment when your requirements change.
The Beamex calibration ecosystem helps improve efficiency, ensure compliance, and increase safety. Beamex products are sustainable by design, meaning they are designed to have a long service life and to be as easy as possible to repair, maintain, and upgrade. For example, our customers typically use their Beamex calibrators for over 10 years.

In the chemicals industry, safety is priority number one. But how do you ensure safety in a sustainable way? When it comes to calibration, the answer is a modern, digitalized, and automated solution.
Advances in technology seem to come faster and faster and today, dedicated calibration software is the most advanced solution available to support and guide calibration management activities.
How can you best manage costs while still ensuring quality? To stay competitive, service companies that perform calibrations for process industry customers must pull off this balancing act.
In the fine chemicals industry, it’s essential to maintain the highest possible safety standards while ensuring compliance with all applicable regulations.
Service companies that perform calibrations for the process industries face a whole host of challenges, from serving a wide range of customers with different needs to making sure each contract is profitable.
In the fine chemicals industry, one of the keys to ensuring both safety and compliance is that measurements taken throughout the production process are accurate, which can be challenging with paper-based calibration.
Done properly, digitalization can unlock a whole host of benefits for pharmaceutical companies including greater efficiency, cost savings, and the ability to do data analysis.
In addition to the non-negotiable, number-one priority of ensuring safety, the key factors driving the fine chemicals industry today are sustainability and efficiency.
While process efficiency and waste minimization are key to remaining competitive, safety remains the number one priority – and digitalization offers potential solutions to all of these challenges.
In the fine chemicals industry, the number one priority is health, safety, and environment (HSE), but it is important to remember that safety has many levels in the context of fine chemical production.
