About HJR Microptic CC

The HJR Microptic Story

From a dining room table to a trusted calibration partner serving customers across South Africa.

Our Origin

It Began Around a Dining Room Table

Every successful business has a story, and ours began around a dining room table. Founded by three partners with a passion for precision and customer service, HJR Microptic started by repairing small calibration instruments. As demand grew, the business quickly outgrew the dining room table and moved into the garage of one of the founders' family homes. Growth continued at a rapid pace, eventually leading to the purchase of the property itself.

Today

A Modern Calibration Facility

Today, that same property has been transformed into a modern double-storey calibration facility housing five specialist laboratories. In fact, one of the founders was born in the room that now serves as our Dimensional Laboratory, a reminder of how deeply rooted the company is in its history and commitment to growth.

From humble beginnings to a trusted calibration partner serving customers across South Africa, HJR Microptic has continued to evolve through dedication, technical expertise, and a commitment to quality.
