Driven by Value, Design and DistributionElectronic Temperature Instruments: Based in the UK, they provide the latest technology in electronic measurement and intend to pursue innovative measurement solutions of temperature for the future. High-tech products are its hallmark and it is a highly service-oriented company and also provides after-sales service ("Global Precision Food Thermometer Market 2017-2021", 2017).ThermoWorks - Their Guns for non-contact infrared thermometers are ideal for HVAC, warehouse, quality assurance, manufacturing and agriculture inspectors. Their RTD sensors provide high precision for temperature measurement and are perfect for high precision in restaurants, laboratories, construction processes or any other case where a high precision instrument is needed. RTD probes can be surface probes or penetration probes. It provides a high temperature range up to 1800°C possible for metallurgy and metalworking foundries. The price range is between CAD 40 and 500. Their Wi-Fi recorders are battery powered for up to 1 year usage. The recorder is connected to an LCD screen that displays temperature, Wi-Fi connection status, maximum/minimum temperature, memory status, alarm condition and remaining battery. Also includes a 2-point NIST traceable calibration certificate. You can take temperature readings of entryways, cooking areas, prep areas, cold storage, ovens and more. (“Global Precision Food Thermometer Market 2017-2021”, 2017). Testo (based in Germany) – They design, develop and produce portable temperature measuring and testing instruments. Their products include temperature measuring instruments, such as data loggers, air velocity meters, humidity and dew point meters, refrigeration service analyzers, multifunction instruments, exhaust gas analyzers and air emission monitors, water analyzers, tachometers, sound, pressure and light meters, and thermal imaging cameras. They offer NIST calibrations (where applicable) on all instruments, as well as ISO 9001 quality standards and up to three-year parts warranties, as well as support for the life of the instrument. The price of their products ranges from CAD 120 to 700 ("Global Precision Food Thermometer Market 2017-2021", 2017). They may be known globally for quality, but when it comes to household products, China and Japan are the top exporters to South Korea. For example, Xuzhou Sanhe Automatic Control Equipment Co., Ltd., which exports a wide range of digital thermometers and NTC temperature sensors for industrial/household purposes (refrigerator/freezer temperature, gas) at a price of less than 2 CAD.
