Our Story

In 1962, Betty Ruth Hollander, a 32-year-old mother of four, founded Omega Engineering, Inc. at her kitchen table. Mrs. Hollander began by making ultra-fine-gauge thermocouples, a product commercially unavailable at the time.

She advertised by mailing flyers to engineers and scientists. By day she took sales calls and shipped the product.

Over 49 years as Chairman and CEO, Mrs. Hollander led Omega to become an international product development and manufacturing powerhouse and the world’s trusted one-stop-source for over 100,000 process measurement and control products and solutions.

Well-known for temperature products such as Omega thermocouples and rtds, Omega Engineering is a trusted manufacturer of many key sensors and measurement devices. If you are interested in exploring these products, check out Omega Pressure Transducers, flow meters, load cells, data loggers, and Omega temperature controllers.

Omega Engineering is now part of the DwyerOmega family of brands. Other DwyerOmega brands include Dwyer Instruments, ACI, Miljoco, Weiss and UFM. Our brands stand as industry leaders, offering cutting-edge sensors and instrument solutions for a diverse range of industrial and controlled environment applications.
