TA Instruments
- "In regards to the Centre for Industrial Rheology, I can say without a doubt that the training my company received from them was very valuable. They showed us how to look at data collected in a different way to make sure the data was good, but also to get the most out of the data that was collected by our Brookfield viscometers. We put into use what they taught us as soon as the very next day, and I feel more confident in the way we are conducting our tests as a result. I recommend having The Centre for Industrial Rheology come in to anyone who is looking to improve their knowledge of rheology and data interpretation."
