Advanced Materials Testing and Failure Investigation

We provide advanced materials testing and failure investigations, combining engineering expertise with AI-enhanced microscopy and spectroscopy.

MatterTest helps organisations understand why materials fail and how to prevent it.We analyse metals, coatings, and polymers using:


Laboratory Equipment

  • Optical Microscopy (×1000 magnification)

  • SEM & EDX Analysis

  • FTIR and FT-NIR Spectroscopy

  • Corrosion and Water System Testing

  • Wall & Coating Thickness Measurement
