Crowcon Detection Instruments has a mission to protect people and plant from gas hazards. From North Sea oil platforms to South American steel mills our customers rely on Crowcon gas detectors to keep them safe.

For over 40 years Crowcon have been developing and manufacturing high quality products with a reputation for reliability and technical innovation. The Crowcon range offers both fixed and portable gas detection equipment based on a solid foundation of expertise in mechanical, electronic and software design and an understanding of the core physics and chemistry of gas detection. Accreditation and certification are fundamental to our approach and we work closely with international bodies to ensure products are designed and built to meet the requirements of industry leading equipment certification and performance standards.

As well as our head office in Abingdon, UK, we have regional centres in Holland, India, China, Singapore and the USA supporting both end customers and our network of distribution partners. Products are made in Abingdon using Lean and Six-Sigma production principles, in our ‘show-room’ manufacturing facility. This facility is accredited to ISO 9001:2008 and BS EN 13980 as well as passing regular audits by international bodies such as LRQA, BASEEFA and Lloyds Register.

Crowcon Detection Instruments is part of the Industrial Safety division of Halma (FTSE: HLMA), an international group committed to protecting lives and improving the quality of life for people worldwide.

Our priorities are to be market led, listening to our customers and helping them achieve their aims; to achieve sales growth through innovative product development and partnership with our customers; to be a quality organisation in everything we do and to develop our people to be the best.
