                                            Did you know that wood is a hygroscopic material? This means it naturally absorbs and releases moisture depending on the humidity of its surroundings. When the moisture level in wood changes, it can swell or shrink. This may lead to problems such as warping, cracking or even structural failure. That’s why accurate measurement of wood moisture is so important, especially in industries like furniture making, construction and wood processing. 
At NMIM, we perform calibration of Wood Moisture Meters to ensure their accuracy and reliability. Using reference wood samples stored in controlled humidity chambers, we determine the reference value of moisture content of the samples and compare them with reading from the unit under test. Through this process, we help ensure that your instruments provide stable and trustworthy results even under varying environmental conditions.
In short, a well-calibrated Wood Moisture Meter is not just a tool. It’s a key to maintain the durability and performance of wood-based products.
