Testing labs in Worsley

Airflow Measurements Ltd is a UKAS-accredited calibration laboratory headquartered in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England, with more than fifty years of specialist expertise in airflow and environmental measurement instrument calibration. Established in 1973 and operated as a family-run business, the company has grown into one of the UK's most experienced independent calibration service providers for airflow, ventilation, and environmental test and measurement instruments. Operating from its site at 72 Manchester Road, Kearsley, Bolton (BL4 8NZ) with a registered office at Unit 27, Oakhill Trading Estate, Devonshire Road, Worsley, Manchester (M28 3PT), the laboratory serves a nationally dispersed customer base spanning industrial, institutional, healthcare, and environmental sectors. The laboratory's core technical offering is precision calibration of a broad portfolio of airflow and ventilation measurement instruments. This encompasses rotating vane anemometers and thermal (hot-wire) anemometers, capture hoods and balometers for air volume flow measurement, micromanometers and pressure gauges, pitot static tubes, mass flow meters, multi-function ventilation meters, and duct leakage testers. All calibrations are performed against traceable national standards and conducted in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 under the laboratory's UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) accreditation schedule, providing customers with independent third-party verification of measurement traceability and technical competence. Beyond specialist airflow instrumentation, Airflow Measurements offers calibration services for a wide range of complementary environmental and electrical measurement equipment. The laboratory's scope includes thermometers and hygrometers for temperature and humidity measurement, photometers, sound level meters, velometers, chart recorders, and data loggers. Electrical test and measurement equipment — including oscilloscopes, clamp meters, multimeters, portable appliance testers (PAT testers), current transformers, and voltage transformer test sets — also falls within the laboratory's calibration capability, making it a versatile single-source provider for organisations maintaining diverse instrument fleets across multiple disciplines. Complementing its calibration service, Airflow Measurements provides instrument repair and servicing, enabling customers to return faulty or degraded instruments and receive them back in verified, working condition. A hire service is also available for customers requiring specialist measurement equipment on a temporary basis, with on-site engineer support available for field measurement and commissioning work. This integrated model — encompassing calibration, repair, hire, and equipment sales — means customers can source, maintain, and validate their measurement tools through one specialist supplier. Airflow Measurements is additionally a Gold Channel Partner for TSI Instruments, one of the world's foremost manufacturers of precision airflow and environmental test instruments, giving the laboratory access to manufacturer-level technical expertise and the latest instrument advances. The laboratory's quality management system satisfies the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025, ensuring that all calibrations are carried out with repeatable methodology, fully documented traceability to national or international measurement standards, and rigorous measurement uncertainty budgeting. UKAS accreditation — granted by the UK's national accreditation body and recognised internationally through mutual recognition agreements (MRAs) — provides independent assurance of the laboratory's ongoing technical competence, impartiality, and quality of output. The company operates a comprehensive documented quality assurance framework that underpins consistent delivery against both internal performance standards and the specific requirements of each customer. Airflow Measurements serves a broad spectrum of end-users across the United Kingdom whose operations depend on accurate, traceable airflow and environmental measurement. The customer base includes air quality consultants and environmental monitoring specialists, HVAC and building services commissioning engineers, process manufacturers requiring industrial hygiene measurement, insurance inspectors, local government authorities, National Health Service hospitals and other healthcare facilities requiring validated ventilation compliance measurements, military establishments, and university and commercial scientific research institutions. This diversity of clientele reflects the laboratory's ability to calibrate instruments to exacting specifications across a wide range of technical and regulatory contexts. With over five decades of continuous operation since its incorporation in May 1973, Airflow Measurements Ltd has established a reputation grounded in technical rigour, UKAS-verified competence, and responsive customer service. Organisations across the North West of England and throughout the wider UK — whether submitting instruments by post or engaging the laboratory's field engineering services — will find in Airflow Measurements a highly credible, experienced, and independently accredited calibration partner for all airflow, environmental, and associated electrical measurement instrumentation needs.
