Environmental Measurements Limited (EML) was established in 1985.  Back in the early 80's a new type of rain gauge was developed with an aerodynamic shape.  This was our first product, the ARG100.  We stopped producing the ARG100 in 2019 and replaced it with the ARG314 which takes advantage of modern manufacturing techniques.  Since then EML have added a feast of Hydro-Met products to the range along with over 20 years services and project management for small and large clients. 
EML are the friendly Hydro-Met team that get the job done.
