More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Measurement Specialties doesn't mind a little pressure. The company uses its pressure sensor technology to manufacture consumer products, such as kitchen, postal, and bath scales. Nearly 75% of the company's sales come from its consumer products line, which also includes distance estimators and tire gauges. Measurement Specialties has used acquisitions -- including its 2000 purchase of TRW's Schaevitz Sensors division -- to boost its industrial sensors line, which includes pressure transducers, accelerometers, and sensors that measure such properties as pressure and fluid level. The company sells through retailers and distributors such as Sunbeam (20% of sales) and Germany's Korona Haushaltswaren (nearly 15%).
