The Gas Detection People
Only a few people in this world get excited about gas detectors.
Most of them work for Industrial Scientific.
Gas detection is all that we do. It’s what we love to do.
But we understand that, for many people, buying and maintaining gas detectors are like buying and maintaining tires. No one likes to do it. That’s why we developed breakthrough systems for automated testing, calibration and data management.
Maybe it’s our fascination with sensor span reserves and LEL correlation factors. Maybe it’s the way we analyze and simplify safety data in ways that no one else has ever imagined. Add to that, our joy of serving others and our desire to exceed customer expectations. Then you begin to see why no other company offers a service like iNet.
Perhaps we are a little different. That’s fine with us; because saving lives is something everyone can get excited about.
Our Story
Beginnings
The company started in 1976 as the Research Division of National Mine Service Company (NMS). The Division was formed to develop methane detectors for underground mines. In 1985, NMS sold the division, and Industrial Scientific Corporation began independent operations on January 25 of that year.
Manufacturing Heritage
Investments in research and engineering led to patented technologies and state-of-the-art designs. In turn, the company’s products became known as the most rugged and dependable in the world.
New Technologies
In 2004, Industrial Scientific introduced iNet and the concept of Gas Detection as a Service. The company has also emerged as a leader in safety data analytics. Customers now have access to information that helps them identify and correct problems before they happen.
Looking Ahead
The future of Industrial Scientific will be shaped by a Vision of eliminating death in the workplace by the end of this century. With a solid track record of innovation, the company is well on its way to achieving that Vision. |
