Metrosert is the National Metrology Institute of Estonia. We maintain and develop Estonian national measurement standards for length, mass, temperature and electrical quantities. The quality of numerous Estonian products and services is based on our measuring capability.
EURAMET
As the national metrology institute, AS Metrosert represents Estonia as a full member in the European Association of National Metrology Institutes, EURAMET e.V.
EURAMET is a pan-European metrology organisation that coordinates cooperation between the European national metrology institutes. The aim of the organisation is to develop an internationally competitive measuring infrastructure in Europe, including:
- to ensure access to the SI primary standards;
- to coordinate the intercomparisons of national measurement standards;
- to organise cooperation in metrology related research and development;
- to facilitate the joint use of technical possibilities;
- to develop technical competence and quality systems.
EURAMET administers research financing programmes in the area of metrology – the European Metrology Programme for Innovation and Research (EMPIR) and the European Partnership on Metrology (EPM), in which Metrosert takes part as the national metrology institute. A list of projects implemented at Metrosert in the framework of EMPIR and EPM is available here.
