Safe decisions based on traceable testing and analysis results

Technical components and industrial plants require precise data, reliable assessments and a sound understanding of materials. We work for engineers, operators, manufacturers, expert assessors and insurers who must make safe decisions based on traceable testing and analysis results.

We combine materials testing, failure analysis, welding and brazing-soldering technology, metrology, corrosion assessment and engineering into a seamless field of expertise – from material characterization to service-life and safety assessment. This creates a clear overview of methods, standards and applications that reliably support modern industrial processes.
