Each calibration is accompanied by a certificate that confirms compliance with the rigorous standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Serving Kenilworth, NJ
Kenilworth is a 2.2-square-mile borough in central Union County, off the Garden State Parkway at Exit 138 with U.S. Route 22 running through it. Its measurement workload is unusually heavy for a town of 8,400, most of it at 2000 Galloping Hill Road: the 108-acre former Schering-Plough and Merck research headquarters, now the Northeast Science & Technology Center (NEST), is being re-tenanted for life-sciences work, with Revlon centralizing its New Jersey labs there. It anchors the wider Union County pharmaceutical corridor running to Merck's Rahway headquarters. Tra-Cal supports these operations with ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 calibration of test, measurement, and laboratory equipment.
Our Gaithersburg, Maryland lab serves Union County two ways: prepaid ship-in calibration with a typical five-business-day turnaround, and scheduled onsite calibration at your facility, handled by mobile labs that each carry more than 100 reference instruments. Every calibration is NIST-traceable and comes with an audit-ready certificate supporting FDA 21 CFR Part 820, ISO 13485, ISO 9001, and AS9100 quality systems.

How Tra-Cal Serves Kenilworth, NJ
In-Lab Calibration:
Send your equipment to our ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 laboratory with prepaid inbound and return shipping. Calibration is performed in a climate-controlled environment against documented procedures, with traceability through NIST. Standard turnaround is approximately five business days from receipt, and asset records are retained with automated due-date notifications.
Onsite Calibration:
Our metrologists travel to Kenilworth-area facilities for fixed assets, large inventories, and instruments that should not be moved — stability chambers, ovens and freezers, environmental rooms, pilot-plant equipment, and fixed test benches on regulated laboratory and production floors. Calibration is performed in a controlled environment at your site on a scheduled appointment, with the same accreditation, NIST traceability, and documentation as in-lab service.
