Optimal materials for production and operation
Crucial to the usability and quality of a product is the quality of the materials used. In industry, as in daily life.
For example, a car wash: Which brushes and wash components have the longest life span? We examine and evaluate the materials provided.
As happens so often, high-quality materials are decisive to the operational safety and productivity of a company.
Our experts have the experience of countless materials and systems tests. They can show that the right choice of material not only makes a small difference.

Materials acceptance procedures and materials appraisal
Materials of all types are in practice almost always great strain. This can have fatal consequences. Corrosion. Wear and fatigue make the material porous; welds and joints leak. Damage assessments are often more expensive than the timely review of product and manufacturing. In addition to manufacturing, we conduct tests of manufacturing processes and products in all material areas.
