We understand that safety, increased regulations, the drive for cost savings and streamlined productivity are four important factors facing the chemical industry. Some of our biggest and best customers operate in the chemical industry and choose Nicol Scales & Measurement because of our $6M of liability insurance, our very low EMR rating and because we are prequalified and verified for Quality, Safety, and Sustainability with more than nine compliance verification companies including IsNet, Browz, SMI, and PSC.  NSM provides FM approved weighing equipment for all classes, divisions and groups of explosive environments.

NSM also supplies stainless steel scales and load cells with IP69K and NEMA 4X ratings and hydraulic load cells and scales to stand up to the most hostile and corrosive environments on earth.  Our force measurement and material testing equipment can be used to test the plastics, rubbers and resins that are commonly part of a petrochemical company’s product offering.

Our Service team is factory trained to work on FM approved equipment and has all necessary safety training and credentials, including TWIC cards. NSM’s exclusive EasyCal program allows us to create a custom calibration solution for your company’s specific needs.  Contact us to learn more.
