PME is founded by researchers, for researchers. We recognize the importance of reliable water quality data in water research. From chemical and biological nutrients in watersheds, algal blooms in lakes and other ecological stressors in bodies of water across the world, as researchers you need to be able to understand water and how it is changing to learn how to best protect this natural resource.
Our team is focused on developing high-quality products that are easy to use and long-lasting. In our R&D labs, our engineering team listens to feedback and the needs of our customers and works diligently to integrate technologies into our products that advance the capabilities of fieldwork. They are continuously working to develop new products that gather larger quantities of data, reach deeper depths, lengthen deployment times and hone the precision of parameters measured to better the integrity of data collected.
Additionally, our customer support team's primary goal is to support you. Product specialists understand the vast applications and work with you to pair the correct loggers to your application, parameters and research goals. Our customers lean on our experience and the experiences shared by other researchers to guide you through the logger selection and procurement process.
