Materials Testing

Materials testing offers assurance that components used in your infrastructure or products are fit for purpose and capable of performing over their expected lifespan.

Materials testing is a diligent approach to ensuring that your infrastructure and vital equipment will provide continued production, undergo minimal degradation and are designed with optimal performance in mind. Materials testing can also supply a wealth of information about the materials you are developing or incorporating into products to ensure they perform within expected specifications. 

Ensuring that crucial materials are fit for purpose presents a challenge to developers, operators and manufacturers across many industries globally. You need assurance that your equipment and infrastructure will perform to the end of its design life with minimal maintenance, failure mitigation and with mechanical strength prioritised and planned for.   To optimise your R&D programmes you will need a comprehensive understanding of your materials or products under development.
