Sample Testing and Material Characterization

Our laboratory is equipped with modern instrumentation designed for mechanical testing, climatic and thermal testing, surface property analysis, and material surface preparation, with a primary focus on polymeric and coating systems. Thanks to a wide range of testing equipment, we are able to provide comprehensive evaluation of material properties under various conditions, both for research and development purposes and for practical industrial applications.

We perform strength and deformation testing, assessment of temperature and climatic effects, contact angle measurements, surface free energy determination, hardness testing, and coating thickness measurements. Our services also include professional surface preparation using plasma and chemical technologies, enabling targeted modification of adhesion and functional material properties.

Our laboratory facilities allow us to respond flexibly to specific customer requirements and to provide reliable, repeatable, and scientifically substantiated measurements.
