Thermetrics is a global leader in the design, manufacture, and lifetime support of thermal manikins and related instruments for evaluating textiles, garments, and human environments. With over 35 years of experience, we have developed a comprehensive portfolio of systems trusted by leading research institutions and global brands to drive innovation in protective clothing, environmental ergonomics, climate control, and wearable technologies.

Our manikin products set the global standard. The Newton sweating thermal manikin is universally relied upon for precision and repeatability. ANDI, with an integrated cooling system, extends evaluation to high-heat environments, while Liz—based on 3D scans of female morphology—advances research in garment fit and performance. Thermetrics also provides specialized head, hand, and foot manikins that form the basis of ASTM test methods. All Thermetrics manikins can be coupled with advanced physiology models to provide unparalleled human realism.

Complementing our manikins, Thermetrics instruments support a full range of thermal protection testing, from flat-sample radiant, convective, and conductive exposures to flash-fire manikin systems for evaluating garment ensembles under direct flame.  If we don’t have a product for your application, we have the capability to develop one.

Headquartered in the U.S. and supported by an international sales and service agent network, Thermetrics recently expanded with a Finland office to better serve customers with sales and support within the European Union.

PT Teknik ApS is a Danish company founded in 1988, specializing in the development, design and manufacture of advanced manikin systems. With over three decades of continuous innovation, our rugged and reliable manikins deliver objective, repeatable data for evaluating thermal comfort, clothing performance, and vehicle cabin environments.Our product line includes full-body thermal and sweating manikins that replicate human heat and sweat production, modular breathing system for air quality studies, and a motion system for movement simulation. The manikins can be produced with a male, female or child body form as well as in a special automotive configuration optimized for seat contact in vehicles. We also offer separate head, hand and foot manikins for testing wearables and individual components. All the products are compliant with ISO and ASTM standards, and customizable by number of zones and sweat glands.We work closely with universities, R&D labs, and industry leaders in fields such as building environment, automotive, textiles, and protective clothing. With a strong reputation for quality and longevity, most of our manikins delivered since the early 1990s are still in active use today — a testament to our engineering and customer support.
