History - RCM
In 1966 Roy C. Marker (RCM) was a field engineer for Applied Radiation. On a tour of the NASA facility in Texas, he was briefly shown a large number of non-functioning flow gauges of various types and sizes. His tour guide pointed out how a majority of gauges were either inaccurate, non-functioning or in the process of repair. His guide then said that a basic, sturdy, dependable flow gauge would be a major benefit to the industry.
Roy challenged himself to develop a flow meter that was rugged, reliable, easy to apply and install and would give years of service. After developing the Flo-Gage, he launched RCM Industries in 1972. After Roy's untimely death his wife Lenore Marker managed the business until her retirement in 1987.
Our staff today includes many of Roy's original staff from the 1970's. "Our policy is to supply products which meet or exceed the expectations of our customers and all established requirements. We are committed to continued improvements of our people, our services, our processes and our products. Our mission is to serve industrial and commercial customers with flow measuring products which are rugged and reliable and easy to apply, and provide outstanding services with delivery commitments which are as reliable as our products".
