Measurement and Calibration

SIRIM is empowered by the National Measurement System Act 2007 to be the National Measurement Standards Laboratory and the country's Custodian of Weights and Measures. As such, the SIRIM National Metrology Lab is the keeper of Malaysia's Primary Physical Standards of Measurement. SIRIM's National Metrology Laboratory (NML) is also entrusted with the critical role of providing metrological support to the national measurement infrastructure. It is a member of the Metre Convention, Asia Pacific Metrology Programme, Asia Pacific Legal Metrology Forum and International Organisation of Legal Metrology. The NML is also a signatory of the global Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) on National Measurement Standards and Calibration Certificates issued by National Metrology Institutes, which allows us to establish the national measurement standards. Our measurement and calibration services cover the needs of all industries. In addition, we offer technical advisory services for industrial calibration and proficiency as well as training.
