SALT SPRAY CORROSION TESTS
MaterialScan provides salt spray corrosion tests for many industrial sectors thanks to the partnership with Proton Technology, a worldwide operating laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025.
What do we offer?
More than 200 tests in a catalogue. Salt spray corrosion tests are performed in accordance with international standards and specifications of several automotive OEMs, manufacturers of industrial vehicles, trailers, special vehicles and motorbikes.
Testing of large components. Test cabinets can accommodate products of all sizes, not just standardized specimens.
Report delivery in 24h. Thanks to 15 test cabinets and the express delivery option, results are delivered within 24h after test completion.
The only laboratory in Europe acknowledged by IKEA for salt spray corrosion tests.
Salt spray corrosion tests
Thanks to a 1200 m² climate-controlled laboratory and the fastest lead time on the market, we can satisfy customer requests belonging to the mechanical supply chain of automotive, furniture and building sectors.
In addition to salt spray corrosion tests and surface analysis, the laboratory performs tests on coatings (paints, varnishes and metal coatings) and environmental tests on electrical and electronic components.
Failure analysis and material testing
Our team analyzes failures of plastic or metal components to determine the causes of damage and identify corrective actions.
We perform material testing and laboratory verification to assess the presence of defects, signs of degradation or other alterations.
Innovation and research funded projects
Do you have an innovative idea and are you looking for assistance in developing it?
We have been working for many years with companies and research organisations on innovation, sustainability and circular economy.
MaterialScan can support your company in research funding programmes, both from a technical point of view and in writing the funding application.
