Originally established as Environmental Metrology Corporation, ENMET was born from Dr. Brown’s dedication to employee health and safety. His vision was to design solid-state gas and vapor detectors that would protect workers in a wide range of industrial environments. Dr. Brown was not only an innovator but also a passionate educator. From 1975 until his passing in 2013, he conducted confined space safety seminars across the United States and Canada, working with safety councils, hygiene associations, private employers, and safety equipment distributors. He contributed to numerous safety industry organizations, including the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE), American Conference of Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), American National Standards Institute (ANSI), and the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA). His expertise and training programs left a lasting impact on industrial safety standards. Over the years, ENMET has built a strong reputation for meeting the needs of diverse industries with innovative and reliable gas detection systems. In its early years, the company developed gas and vapor detection equipment for consumer vehicular applications such as powerboats and recreational vehicles. As industrial safety demands increased, particularly following the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, ENMET expanded into manufacturing portable, cost-effective gas detection devices for industrial applications. Today, ENMET continues to serve a global market, providing cutting-edge solutions for industrial health and safety. Their product line includes portable and fixed gas detection systems, specialized monitoring equipment, and customized solutions for unique applications. These technologies are used across manufacturing, petrochemical, environmental, and confined space industries to ensure workplace safety and compliance with regulatory standards. With over 50 years of experience, ENMET remains committed to innovation, quality, and customer-focused solutions. Whether it’s protecting workers from hazardous gases, ensuring compliance with OSHA requirements, or developing specialized detection systems, ENMET delivers technology that businesses can trust. The company’s legacy, shaped by Dr. Brown’s dedication, continues to drive its mission—safeguarding lives through advanced gas detection technology. Read more
