EURO PRODUCTS LIMITED

What EURO PRODUCTS LIMITED does

EURO PRODUCTS LIMITED is a privately held UK precision-instrument manufacturer founded in 1989 and headquartered in Stourbridge, West Midlands. The company specialises in the manufacture of hardness testing accessories — diamond indenters, ball indenters, reference hardness blocks, and carbide balls — used on industrial and laboratory hardness testing machines covering Rockwell, Vickers, Brinell and Knoop methods. Euro Products is an accredited UKAS ISO 17025 calibration laboratory for measurement and certification of these products, and self-reports tolerances tighter than the relevant international standards (EN ISO 6506-2, 6507-2, 6508-2; ASTM E10, E18, E92). The 'Euro Calibration' brand is a registered trademark of the company.

The business operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market: customers must register and be approved to access the online shop, prices are quote-based and bespoke specifications are supported. Products are sold directly through the company-owned e-commerce site and through distributor accounts with bulk purchase discounts, with UPS as the preferred global courier. Approximately 85% of products are exported worldwide, and the company offers re-calibration services as a recurring revenue stream alongside one-time product sales. The operating footprint is a single UK site with about 5 employees and a catalog of 189 SKUs; there is no disclosed parent company, external funding, M&A history, or app/API platform.
