Environmental testing & monitoring

Environmental monitoring equipment hire

Calibrated environmental monitoring instruments for consultants, contractors, researchers, industries, academic institutions and government projects that need monitoring capacity for a defined period.

Buying specialist monitoring equipment rarely makes sense for a short project, a one-off survey or a research study. INRC hires out the same calibrated instruments our own team uses in the field, so you get reliable equipment without the cost of ownership.

Our range covers noise, vibration, air quality, gas detection and water quality. All instruments are regularly calibrated and maintained, and each one is checked before it leaves our office.

We don’t simply hand over a box. We set the instrument up with you, train the people who will use it, and stay available for troubleshooting during the hire. When the hire ends, we can help you download and organise the data.
