Environmental laboratory
We subject your product to all types of environmental testing.
We test your engineering samples, prototypes, and series products according to national and international standards and regulations. Our testing laboratory is accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and subjects your specimens to climatic, dynamic mechanical, corrosive, electrical, and combined tests and extended time tests.
We perform environmental tests on materials, components, assemblies, prototypes, and series devices for all industries, supporting our clients in all sectors, such as the energy industry, railway technology, the automobile industry, the aerospace industry, the shipping industry, and the medical industry.
We simulate extreme climatic conditions by means of temperature, moisture, heat, temperature variation, and solar radiation loads. We perform corrosion tests with salt mist and corrosive gas tests and dynamic mechanical tests by means of vibration and impact tests.
When conventional testing reaches its limits, we develop testing procedures tailored to your requirements and provide comprehensive consulting.
