Our defence industry testing services

  • Mechanical strength tests: we perform extensive mechanical tests to evaluate the strength and toughness of materials. Our tensile tests and fall impact tests ensure that materials can withstand extreme conditions and shocks.
  • Environmental impact tests: military equipment must be resistant to harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, humidity and sand. We test for durability under these conditions to ensure the longevity of the materials in the field.
  • Chemical resistance tests: in the defence industry, materials can be exposed to various chemicals and corrosive substances. Our tests evaluate the resistance of materials to these chemical effects.
  • Security tests: for ballistic materials and armour, we carry out special tests to measure effectiveness and safety. This includes testing for impact resistance and perforation.

Why testing is important in the defence industry

Testing materials in the defence industry is crucial for:

  • Reliability: unreliable materials can fail in critical situations, costing lives.
  • Safety: ensuring the safety of soldiers and equipment is of the utmost importance.
  • Sustainability: sustainable materials reduce the need for frequent replacements and lower overall costs.
