Material Testing

 

We conduct material testing and chemical and mineralogical analyses on building materials that are directly sent to us or that we take from the construction site or your production facility in an arrangement with you. Our customers include public bodies as well as those in industry and trade and private contractors.

Testing tasks for building materials often develop over the course of production, the use of a construction site, or use in a building. They may also be needed for national and European authorizations and supervision and certification in accordance with the State Building Regulations or Building Product Act. When we issue expert reports for the court, and arbitrator's awards, we work together with different experienced engineering offices.
