Nearly five years after the closure of the former
Wellington site, the Ministry of Business, Innovation &
Employment (MBIE) Trading Standards laboratory in Wellington
is set to reopen.
The reopening also coincides with an
event for World Metrology Day. Observed on 20 May, this is
an annual commemoration of the setting of global
collaboration in the science of measurement.
The event
is being hosted by the team at the adjacent Measurement
Standards Laboratory (MSL), and Trading Standards will join
them for this event. Both labs are within Callaghan
Innovation’s Gracefield Innovation Quarter site in Lower
Hutt.
