• About Us

  •  

CHEMetrics was founded in 1969 by Gordon Rampy. Our extensive product line of water and wastewater testing kits is based on his original invention, the self-filling reagent ampoule, that allows analysts to conduct colorimetric water analysis with greatly increased simplicity, convenience, speed and safety, both on-site and in the laboratory.

We’ve grown rapidly thanks to the development of new products and applications, our novel proprietary manufacturing techniques, and the immediate acceptance of the self-filling ampoule seen in the marketplace. We also credit our employees. Their deep loyalty to each other and what we stand for makes us who we are. A number of our earlier employees are still active in the daily workings of the company.

In October 2022 we joined the AquaPhoenix Scientific family of companies to offer an even more comprehensive line of water testing products. Based in Hanover Pennsylvania, AquaPhoenix strives to be a customer’s One Source for water testing supplies offering test kits, equipment, technology, reagents, and even private-labeled custom products. With the ability to put multiple brands and product types on one purchase order, a comprehensive online store, and live customer support, AquaPhoenix seeks to make ordering simple for customers. 

We’re proud to manufacture and ship millions of ampoules for simplified water testing to analysts who work in the aquaculture, boiler/cooling water, chemical processing, drinking water, education, environmental testing, food and beverage, mining, petroleum refining, power generation, pulp and paper, semiconductor manufacturing, and wastewater industries.

We employ many full-time personnel at the AquaPhoenix Virginia office located just beyond the bustling Washington, D.C. suburbs. CHEMetrics products are available worldwide, both directly and through a global network of distributors.
