This company doesn't meet WP:NCORP as far as I can tell. The references provided in this article are about the individual products cataloged here. The "history" section is completely un-referenced. Mikeblas (talk) 16:21, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Searching Trove returns only six useful-looking stories about this firm . Given the era in which it operated includes that for which Trove provides good coverage, this strongly indicates that the firm is not notable. Nick-D (talk) 05:01, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep but I might be persuaded otherwise. Direct references to this organisation are few and far between.  However, searches seem to indicate that this company's products were and still are very widely used and respected.  Also, searches by McVan Instruments also turn up references, potentially verifying relevant parts of the History section.  While technically failing GNG and NCORP this organisation does appear to have very significant industry penetration and respect - perhaps just a quiet achiever.

 * Delete both the trove and gnews search shows very limited coverage. LibStar (talk) 05:54, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as corporate spam / product listing; this content belongs on the company web site. Wikipedia is not a sales brochure / WP:CATALOG. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:11, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
