Custom, special, and/or unusual standards are those that do not appear in our product lists but are made to order based on your requirements and specifications. At Calmeasures, we specialize in and encourage your requests for unique or custom-made standards. If you don’t see the thicknesses, compositions, or materials you need in our product lists, please contact us with your specifications. We are happy to discuss your requirements and welcome the opportunity to provide an offer for your custom-made standard(s).

Custom standards are typically more costly than stock standards and often take longer to deliver. The price and delivery time depend on factors such as the materials involved, the level of accuracy required, and whether we need to develop master standards for certification traceable to SI units through US NIST. Pricing is also influenced by potential interest from other customers or markets for similar standards. These factors are all taken into account when providing price and delivery estimates.

Over the years, Calmeasures has produced many custom and unusual standards for our clients. While these standards may not be listed in our stock product lists, we may have material from previous custom work that allows us to offer you a solution at a comparable price point and delivery time to stock standards. Therefore, please reach out to us with any reference standard requirement you may have. In most cases, we can offer something that meets your needs and may even already have it in our extensive inventory.
